Assignment Shawl
This beautiful top-down triangular shawl pattern is expertly designed for those looking to utilize assigned pooling yarn. By thoughtfully avoiding the crowding of decorative bobbles, I’ve incorporated a second skein of yarn and alternated between two unique dipped stitches, ensuring that each pop of color isn’t overwhelmed. Feel free to customize these elements to make this shawl truly your own. This project promises to be both relaxing and engaging, allowing the unique characteristics of your yarn to shine through. I hope you find as much joy in crafting this shawl as I did!
