Meandering Shawl

*Knit two-color brioche and enjoy the meandering lines of this top down shawl. The center increase zigs and zags and finally flows into a wavy chevron border. An I-cord bind off neatly finishes the edge. You can achieve the small size with just one skein for each color or create a large size using 2 skeins of each color. For a thicker version, use colorful bits of DK weight yarn and add tassels to the border.* **Sizes** Small (Large) The PDF pattern includes an expanded large size option in addition to the original small size. The original sample in Loop's 10 is for the small size. **Finished Measurements** 66 (84)" / 168 (213)cm wingspan length, 28 (34)" / 71 (87)cm along center spine. Measurements taken after blocking. The Large size has more pattern repeats before the border. The DK weight version knit in the small size is larger than the fingering weight version due to the larger gauge. DK version measures 76" / 193cm across the wingspan and 30" / 76cm along the center spine. **Yarn** Fingering weight **Shown in** **Fingering Weight Version - Small Size** Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light (100% Superwash Merino Wool; 420yds / 384m per 112g skein), DC - Turquoise Orkney Angora St. Magnus D.K.

I used all Superwash Merino DK yarns. For the foreground DC side, I used Hedgehog Fibres Merino DK in Artifact, Juniper, and a dark green Potluck color. The background LC side used Hedgehog Fibres Egg Yolk, Wildcard, Poppy, Pucker, & Glacier. For the striped DK weight version, change colors whenever you like. I gradually faded from light speckles to dark speckles on the front neutral side. I changed colors more frequently on the colorful background adding 3-row color pop stripes for bright accents. **Yardage** DC (dark color or color in the foreground) - 420 (780)yds / 384 (713)m LC (light color or color in the background) - 400 (730)yds / 366 (668)m The DK weight version uses a total of approximately 600yds / 549m for the DC foreground and 550yds / 503m for the LC background. **Needles** Fingering weight version 40" US 4 / 3.5mm circular DK weight version 40" US 7 / 4.5mm circular **Notions** 11 stitch markers, tapestry needle **Gauge** **Fingering Weight Version** 16 sts & 26 rows = 4" / 10cm in two-color brioche stitch **DK Weight Version** 14 sts & 22 rows = 4" / 10cm in two-color brioche stitch **Errata** Row 15 of the BORDER should include the large size repeat numbers... **Row 15 RS DC:** Repeat the instructions between the asterisks **3 (5) more times.* Repeat the instructions between the double asterisks **3 (6) more times**. **Westknits Workshops** Venture into the world of Westknits with my series of online workshops.
