Notes

This is an eyecatching beautiful mosaic shawl. It looks far more complicated than it is. I recommend using two very high contrasting color yarns to really make the mosaic design pop. I thoroughly enjoyed doing this shawl as a test knit for Cheryl Faust. I think it is a great project for highlighting the wonders of mosaic. Working with one yarn per row and slipping stitches creates this terrific herringbone effect. I recommend you put it on your project list.
