Product Details

The shawl features an original bold graphic pattern inspired by Peruvian textiles, created specially for this design. The shawl is knitted from bottom up in mosaic garter stitch, casting on five stitches and increasing at the beginning and end of each right side row.

The pattern is divided in five sections, using four charts, C1, C2 (repeated twice), C3 and C4 (see schematics on page 2). The shawl can be worked in one main colour, or up to five different main colours for the background and one contrasting colour for patterning. The Main Colour can be solid, speckled or slightly variegated, as long there is good contrast with the Contrasting Colour.
