Oscillate is a funky shawl that is knit from tip to edge using quirky short row inserts and carefully placed increases to make the chevron pattern happen!

Alternating between a single strand of yarn and holding double strands together, Oscillate will help to magically blend, stripe, and marl three fresh and bold colors together in a fun, vibrant pattern that’s sure to stand out!
