Notes

This shawl can be easily adjusted to desired size. Chart A may be repeated as many times as desired, ending with row 18. Chart B may also be repeated as many times as desired, ending with row 2.

This shawl is knit with 2 balls of Frolicking Feet DK Gradients by Done Roving Yarns. To get the same color effect as sample, start by pulling yarn from the center of the first ball of yarn. When switching to the second ball of yarn, start by knitting with the yarn on the outside of the ball.
