Linear Moods

This wrap uses contrasting gradient yarns to create a stunning visual effect. Stripes provide color contrast; shaping bends the stripes into a chevron shape; and the addition of short rows changes the width of each stripe. As the stripes cross the center line, the proportion of colors reverses from thick to thin and thin to thick. Picking the colors for this shawl is a lot of fun - you can go with harmonious hues for a subtle look, draw inspiration from nature as in the sample, or pick wildly contrasting tones for a statement piece.
