Pattern Notes
Beginning with just four stitches, this shawl aims to make the most of a single String Quintet pack of 5 mini-skeins! Work the mini skeins in the same color as shown, or come up with your own unique order of colors! Set aside one color at the beginning to designate as your CC. This color will be used for Mesh sections and the border. The other four colors will be referred to collectively as MC.

There’s no need to worry about matching your gauge exactly to the pattern, as it’s easy to stop each section when you run out of a
particular color.
