Striations Shawl

The definition of striations is a series of ridges; sets of parallel stripes. Using this definition as my inspiration, I designed this heart shaped shawl.

A main colour and a contrast colour provide a unique striated look.

Go bold with two highly contrasting colours or go subtle with two closely related variegated colours.

Grab your yarn and needles. Happy Knitting!
