Love the colors in the sample? Get this exact yarn in a convenient kit right from Knit Circus!

This half-pi shawl is worked from the center out, beginning with a provisional cast-on and i-cord setup. The first third is worked in one color in stockinette, then a contrast color is joined and striped in garter stitch with the main color. It ends with an i-cord bind-off.
This shawl looks best in 2 yarns with good contrast so the slipped stitches stand out. Solids, tonals, or speckles would work well.

Both charts and written instructions are provided. The instructions have been split up by size for your convenience when printing.

A low-vision version of the pattern is also available. This version is written in 24 point sans serif font (Arial) in all black text. It has no italics. All of the directions are fully written out.
