Fresh & pretty, that is the name of this shawl and it surely lives up to it~

The knitting is very enjoyable as the stitch pattern (2 repeating rows) is easily memorized and the colorful accents make it pop. Staggered ribs end the knit and DK weight yarn makes it grow quickly. The pattern is written and charted. The blocked measurements are 53” in length and 15” in height.

Yarns
C1 - Element, a DK weight yarn with 3 coordinating colors and 3 strands of yarn ranging from cotton and linen. 280 yards each. C2 - Mini skein of a textured thick and thin yarn is a sport weight. 35 yards.
