Biased Wedge Shawl // Design by Barbara Benson
Mosaic style colourwork can almost feel like cheating, working stripes and slipped stitches with only one colour at a time. That beautiful simplicity paired with two Party of Five sets results in a show-stopping piece that captivates from start to finish.
- yarn: 2 mini-skein sets SweetGeorgia Party of Five Tough Love Sock, 1 set each in Graphite (MC) and Waterfall (CC) (525 yd / 480 m per set; 80% easy-care merino, 20% nylon)
-
needles: Size 5 US / 3.75 mm needles
Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain correct gauge -
gauge: 22 sts and 42 rows = 4" / 10 cm in Mosaic stitch, after blocking
Note that gauge is not crucial, but will affect required yardage and finished size - finished measurements: 32.5" / 82.5 cm x 62" / 157.5 cm
Pattern includes a 5-page PDF (both written and charted).
