By Emma Vining.

Perfect for layering, draping and wrapping, the Fluffy Stripes Shawl is knitted lengthwise as a long crescent shape. Beginning with one narrow end, the shawl is gradually increased to full depth. A single centre segment is worked, followed by decreases to match the increases.

The contrast shade stripes are knitted with Fluff. These textured stripes are placed between smooth sections of stocking stitch worked in the main yarn, Opus. As the shawl widens, the stripes gradually increase in length. The contrast yarn is also used to cast on and cast off the scalloped edging pattern, creating fluffy edges to the openings between each scallop. The scallop flaps are worked in garter stitch.
