Down The Road and Back Again.
This shawl has an interesting construction. Simple stripes paired with slip stitches provide texture. Increases and decreases create a crescent shape.
To utilize most of your yarn, the pattern includes instructions based on the weight of each ball.
I followed those directions but could have worked a couple more repeats before starting the decreases. On the other hand, it was nice to avoid playing a game of yarn chicken.
The yarn is Lillian Sprinkles and Lillian Ribbit. Picking colors is always part of the fun, and using Sprinkles opens up all sorts of possibilities.
There are so many great murals around town, and I wish I had time to capture more of them. This one caught my eye recently and is this week's color inspiration.
Soothing colors with a splash of red.
