Kosta is inspired by my interest in finding new ways to use intarsia. Knit sideways from tip to tip, this design uses two colors of fingering weight yarn. The triangles along the bottom edge are created through increases and decreases. This shawl is graphic, yet easy to knit. Make one in your favorite colors.

I bought the yarn for this shawl during my first trip to Rhinebeck this past fall. I visited the O wool booth on Sunday morning and had it pretty much all to myself! Jocelyn’s yarns are lovely and a joy to work with and I hope you give them a try.
