Worked from cast-on edge/corner out, increasing stitches along one edge. One color is used at a time with the pattern created in an easy to memorize slip-stitch. A loose rib border is worked in the final step. You will use all the yarn available to you, but your size may vary based on gauge. Shawl will grow substantially with blocking, so check gauge on blocked swatch.

Pattern calls for two balls of Freia Superwash Worsted in contrasting colors. Sample is shown in Aswan (MC) and Anubis (CC/border)
