This shawlette is knit in one piece, formed by four sections that create a semi-circular shape. Two colorways of a fingering-weight yarn are used to create a “sunshine-through-the-clouds” effect.

The pattern involves striping in Stockinette stitch, with increases made every fourth row. It is a relatively easy knit for anyone comfortable with basic decreases and yarn overs.

Stitches are picked up along the top edge to add a Victorian Border.

I used one skein each of two colors of Wild Atlantic Yarns Niamh 4-ply fingering: Mountain Primrose and The Spilled Inkwell.
