Ombre Shawl
This beautifully designed crescent-shaped shawl starts small at the neck and expands quickly, featuring an engaging construction method that includes six increases every other row. The body of the shawl showcases colorful garter stripes adorned with delightful bell-shaped picots, perfect for adding visual interest. These picots are created by skillfully increasing 1 stitch into 7 stitches and then gradually decreasing back over the course of 3 rows, showcasing your knitting prowess. To finish, a simple yet elegant ripple edging worked in an ombre pattern provides a stunning final touch. Feel free to experiment with the order of colors for a personalized look that reflects your unique style!
