Two Color Crescent Shawl
Discover this stunning shawl pattern available for purchase on the [Knit Picks website][1].
This beautifully designed crescent-shaped shawl is crafted using a combination of solid and variegated yarns. An innovative technique is employed, where the yarns are not cut but are carried up the side of the shawl for a seamless finish. Each color is utilized for two rows, with the solid color featuring garter ridges that add an extra pop of texture and visual interest to the design.
The possibilities for color combinations are virtually endless, allowing you to create a unique masterpiece tailored to your taste. In my version, I opted for a slow variegating yarn for my Main Color, but I encourage you to experiment with the opposite approach to achieve a striking effect.
This versatile pattern includes **two distinct versions**, each offering its own charm: the **Leaf Version** and the **Diamond Version**. Both versions are worked identically until you reach the beautiful edging, providing an exciting surprise at the finish line.
Clear instructions are provided, featuring both charts and detailed written directions for both designs to ensure your knitting experience is enjoyable and rewarding.
Finished Size: **Unblocked** dimensions are 46" wide by 15” deep, and **blocked** dimensions expand to an impressive 64" wide by 22” deep, making it perfect for draping over your shoulders or wearing as a statement accessory.
I have personally made this enchanting shawl using [two solid colors][2]. For my project, I chose a thicker yarn, [Elsbeth Lavold Silky Wool][3], and increased the needle size to 9 on [these][4] needles to achieve a lush and cozy fabric.
