It's Only Logical

Out of the blue, I discovered an exciting idea for a garter stitch striped shawl, and I just couldn’t shake it off!

Adding to the challenge, I was determined to use equal amounts of each color, ensuring that every hue received its moment to shine in this unique striped shawl. This approach not only creates a balanced look but also enriches the overall texture and visual interest of the piece.
