Shades of Leaves Shawl
To purchase on Knit Picks1
Errata: Chart B should not have had the last YO in the yellow repeat.
I designed this crescent shaped shawl with the colors of Autumn and Spring in mind. It uses 5 colors of gradient shades of sock yarn.
The color transition is worked in 3 rows of seed st. This gives a slight rick-rack sort of transition between the colors.
I have used Miss Babs Gradient Set and Knitpicks Palette. Either yarns have wonderful colors!
For the Miss Babs, I used:
1 Gradient Set (Set of 5 Yummy 2-ply Toes) from Miss Babs in Enlightenment. (Awareness, Learning, Wisdom, Insight, and Enlightenment)
For the Knitpicks Palette, I used:
Autumn Colors, #24249 Sweet Potato, #24248 Masala, #24003 Salsa heather, #24246 Pimento, #24015 Garnet Heather
Spring Colors, #24254 Celadon Heather, #24257 Edamame, #24256 Clover, #24584 Forest Heather, #25543 Larch Heather
