Description

Moon Sisters is a generously sized, deceptively simple triangle shawl featuring alternating garter and stockinette sections to create textured stripes, and a stranded colorwork design along the center spine. Optional fringe attaches easily to the ribbed eyelet border and finishes the look.
I was inspired by Anna Maltz’s innovative and amazing marlisle technique for this design, you can check out her book for more projects using this fun method!

The body of the shawl is knit holding 2 colors of fingering weight for a marled effect and the 2 yarns are separated at the spine to work the colowork design- no intarsia! 

Designer’s sample was knit out of: Moon Sisters in Mr. Pocket and Elk Antler

Recommended Needle Size: US 5 (3.75 mm) needles, or size needed to obtain gauge.

Yarns we recommend using are:

Squish Fingering

Foxy Lady

Bear Paw Sock
