These two yarns have come together to create gradient magic in the Cascading Colors Shawl! This simple-to-knit, top-down triangle shawl let’s the yarn do all the work to create a cascade of color. Switching between the tonal yarn and color-morphing cake, colors shift hues or saturation as you knit to create a striking shawl.
