Champagne Punch

Champagne punch is a fruity drink that shouldn't be too strong or too sweet — it stays on middle ground whilst still being special. The same holds true for this shawl. It’s not too boring but not too complex; it’s bright and colourful but not overpowering. It uses memorisable stitch patterns to blend colours and create a complex feel but still easy to execute. On cold and dreary days, this warm, playful shawl is just the ticket.

Have fun playing with the colours! I picked two that were close in shade and a third to give it a punch of colour. I love bright, cheery, colours but think this shawl would look equally fantastic in all neutrals.

The DK weight yarn used makes a solid, substantial and cosy shawl. However, if you want to use a different weight yarn, I have included guidelines for what weight in grams you should have left of your yarn before starting each new colour.

Uses three 50g skeins of DK weight yarn.
