This asymmetric triangular shawl is the perfect way to maximize your mini-skeins and let your colors shine! Each of the contrast colors is worked in two row stripes while knitting just one color at a time. Special techniques are easily worked to expand those rows into picots and fireflowers, giving dramatic flair to this vibrant accessory. Enjoy choosing a palette that best highlights your personality or wardrobe, then cast on to Show Your Colors! This printed pattern includes a code for a digital copy. You download this from Ravelry. Choosing your colours: Lisa K Ross advises When organizing your contrast colors, I recommend arranging them in either rainbow order or gradient order. To use gradient order, take a photo with a black/white filter. Arrange the colors from darkest to lightest or vice versa. Before beginning your knit, I recommend labeling each mini-skein color as C1-C5.
