DANCING IN THE RAIN
To learn all about this pattern, be sure to watch my design overview video.

ABOUT THE PATTERN
I love the rain. I love dropped stitches. And dropped stitches remind me of the rain! Dancing in the Rain is named after the dropped stitch sections, which remind me of raindrops and streaming water.

This knit is a fun, addicting asymmetrical triangle that is easily memorized and customized. It is written for one 2 Mile Series skein of fingering weight yarn, which creates a lightweight shawl with a lot of drape. However, feel free to make this pattern yours by using the yarn weight and color schemes that you love! It would look beautiful in a solid, tonal, speckled, faded, or multi-color scheme.

This pattern is written using seven different sections that are repeated throughout the pattern, making it easy to adjust the length of your shawl as you desire.

This design was created as a collaboration with Running on Yarn, an indie yarn dyer located in central Wyoming. If you have the means, I recommend checking out her vibrant colorway options!
