You can also combine this with sock patterns.

This shawl was designed to match & compliment the Sitka Socks. You can knit BOTH using just two skeins of fingering yarn. The shawl is designed so that the leftover yarn from the socks can be used to knit the shawl, with the MC & CC reversed for the shawl. You can automatically get 10% off if you purchase both patterns together.

Size is adjustable, the pattern includes instructions for different yardages and how to make the shawl smaller or larger, how to add a third color, and other customizable options!

This two-color fingering weight shawl is a triangle shawl that begins at the top/center and is worked down and out.

This shawl is designed to be beginner-friendly, where only one color is worked at a time. The shawl mixes between different textures and colors and has a lace border with i-cord edging.

This pattern comes with video tutorials for techniques used.
