Colorful flowers are in bloom, if not outside, all over our latest shawl pattern! Designer, Christine M Young, uses large areas of contrast color to make up the two flower motifs within this shawl design. It's a blast to knit with our unique yarns and watch the beautiful flowers come to life right before your eyes.
The Flower Power Shawl is worked from the center out with a stockinette foundation and eyelet accents. A mini skein kit is used to create two intarsia flowers and the scalloped bind off edge. The shape is curved, like a crescent moon making it ideal for draping around your shoulders cozily.
