PATTERN NOTES
The shawl is an asymmetric triangular shape, beginning at the tip and increasing to the widest edge. Increases are worked along the left edge of every right-side row. Carry unused yarn up the side. Only cut yarn when directed to do so. After completion, this piece is worn with the longest side on top.
The kerchief begins and ends with I-Cord ties, worked seamless into a side-to-side triangle which increases to its widest point and then decreases back down. When working in the Mosaic Chains pattern, only one color is used per row. At each color change, tails are cut and tied together, creating an adorable fringe and eliminating the need to weave in ends! The pattern is both written and charted for your convenience. Slip all stitches purlwise unless otherwise indicated.
One ball of each color of Soyeuse will be enough yarn to make both the shawl and the kerchief.
