Opposite Views

Introducing the Opposite Views shawl, an 'almost rectangular' masterpiece crafted on the bias, showcasing a beautiful interplay of two colors. This stunning knitted shawl alternates between garter stitch sections and captivating mosaic patterns, offering a delightful and engaging experience for knitters of all levels. The unique design features a mirror-image mosaic section in the second half, where the colors are reversed, adding an intriguing twist to your knitting project. The mosaic technique is simple yet never tedious, ensuring that every stitch brings joy and satisfaction as you create your very own fashion accessory.

This shawl is incredibly versatile, allowing you to customize both its length and width to suit your personal style and preference. Detailed resizing instructions are included with the pattern, making it easy to adapt as needed.

For the best results, we highly recommend using two solid colors with a high contrast to truly showcase the intricate details of the mosaic design. A striking combination will not only enhance the visual appeal of your shawl but will also make it a standout piece in your wardrobe.

YARN: For this project, we suggest using Malabrigo Rios, a luxurious 100% Merino Superwash yarn (192 m / 210 yds per skein) in worsted weight. For optimal results, you will need 3 skeins in color A, beautifully displayed in Black, and 3 skeins in color B, showcased in the stunning Natural hue.

In my sample, I opted for 3 skeins of color A (576 m / 630 yds) paired with 2.5 skeins of color B (480 m / 525 yds), striking the perfect balance for a gorgeous finished shawl. Don’t miss the chance to create a unique and personal piece with the Opposite Views shawl pattern — a relaxing and rewarding knit you’ll cherish for years to come!
