Tiny Checks Shawl
The Tiny Checks Shawl combines one of my favorite classic colorwork motifs with my favorite shawl shape, and my favorite type of yarn! The classic 2-color check pattern makes this shawl easy to match with your wardrobe and nostalgic to wear. I chose to knit mine in a fractal spun hand-spun yarn which created a subtle color changing effect throughout the triangle shaped shawl.
