The Mirage Herringbone Shawl blends simplicity with striking visual intrigue. This mosaic-knit shawl is worked tip to tip, starting with a two color I-cord cast on for a seamless border around the entire shawl. Its classic herringbone pattern gets an unexpected twist as the colors reverse at the center, creating a stunning optical illusion.

The interplay of light and dark shades draws the eye, giving the illusion of depth and movement.
The shape is an elongated triangle, giving you a bit more length without adding to the depth making this easy to wear in multiple ways.

Perfect for knitters looking for a project that is both meditative and bold, this shawl adds sophistication to any outfit. Choose your favorite contrasting colors to make the mirage come to life!
