The Two sides of the story shawl is a delightful, mindless and super quick knit that even beginners will enjoy to create.
Knitted side ways with two of the brand new bulky weight Ultimate yarn cakes.
The first color increases the shawl to the half mark and the second cake decreases it to the opposite tip end. An eyelet pattern adds a lovely detail along the in/decreased edges and a garter stitch border finishes the top edge.

The unblocked size is 65” in overall length and 20“ in height.
The shawl can easily be made larger but of course more yarn will be needed.
