Afterglow Shawl By Lesley Anne Robinson


"This pattern uses only brioche increases to shape the shawl, and it's been built in brain breaks with no increases at all. The name of this pattern was inspired by the beautiful colors and speckles in the yarn itself, hand-dyed by Natasha of Artemis Yarns. Sometimes all you need is a light, subtle-speckled yarn paired with a deeply imbued solid to create the perfect brioche combination. This asymmetrical triangle shawl is knit from side to side, starting at the very small cast-on point, and ending with the largest bind-off edge."
