Waterside Shawl - by Kat Archer

Like light reflecting on water, the colors of this shawl ripple and fade from one to the next. A perfect canvas for your favorite color palette, choose one that evokes sunrise over a river, mid-day on the coast, or any other waterside locale. 

Instructions offer a four color version, as well as suggestions for using as few as two colors - or as many as you want!

This pattern was originally published as Twisted’s contribution to the 2018 Rose City Yarn Crawl.

This item is a full-color, double-sided printed pattern in a clear plastic sleeve. Prefer an electronic version? This pattern is also available to download directly from Ravelry.
