Are you looking for a creative way to utilize your growing stash of sock yarn scraps? This vibrant and customizable shawl design is the perfect solution! Crafted specifically for sock yarn remnants, this pattern allows you to knit a stunning piece that can be adjusted to any size. As a bonus, it’s perfect for rainbow enthusiasts—like my 5-year-old—who loves bright, colorful creations! You can create yours with a full spectrum of rainbow hues or simplify it by using just 1 or 2 contrasting colors based on your preference.

This shawl is knit flat, but you'll need a circular needle to comfortably slip the stitches back and forth during the process. The versatility of this design means you can easily adapt it to fit your style and yarn collection.

For those interested in size specifics, the large gray shawl boasts an impressive wingspan of 74" (188cm) and utilizes approximately 150g (525 yards) of main color along with 50g (185 yards) of total contrast yarn, resulting in a beautiful combination of 18 stripes. Meanwhile, the smaller pink shawl has a wingspan of 42" (106cm) and requires only 50g (175 yards) of main color and 16g (58 yards) of contrast color, featuring 10 vibrant stripes.

No matter the size you decide to craft, remember that the ratio of main color to total contrast color is approximately 3:1. This design not only helps you creatively use up scraps but also results in a delightful accessory that showcases your knitting skills. Enjoy making your own unique shawl, and let your creativity shine with every stitch!
