“'Mirasol Striped Shawlette' by Sharon Anhalt”
Description
This shawlette was designed to show the drape and sheen of sport weight Mirasol Nuna by contrasting with stripes of Mirasol Sulka Legato, a light fingering weight. Although the two yarns differ in weight, knitting this striped pattern at a loose gauge provides a contrast in hard and soft – airy, light fabric with angular stripes. This piece is constructed from neck edge, increasing to bottom edge.
