For pattern support, please go to the questions thread here. 02/18: Spanish translation added ….are you ready for a good party? SSP is worked flat (sideways), increasing along one edge to create an asymmetrical triangle. Stitches are increased in the slip stitch pattern and then onward into the 1x1 ribbing. A built-in slip stitch edge and the slip stitch colorwork (you only work with one color on any given row) will be the perfect introduction into colorwork (promise - you will have nothing but fun!). The combination of easy slip stitch patterns and the sportive wide ribbing give this shawl a sophisticated yet casual look. The pattern includes additional instructions for a slightly different version (two colors only, larger size) Yarn heavy fingering to light DK weight yarn, approximately C1: 325 yds (297 m) C2: 255 yds (233 m) C3: 68 yds (65 m) C4: 205 yds (187 m) C5: 166 yds (152 m) C6: 113 yds (103 m) modified version: C1: 744 yds (680 m) C2: 624 yds (570 m) sample shown in C1: The Plucky Knitter Yakkity in color Old Mill (mid grey) - BT Loft in color sweatshirt would be a good substitute ;) C2: BT Loft in color Camper (rose) C3: BT Loft in color Fossil (white) C4: BT Loft in color Hayloft (mustard) C5: BT Loft in color Snowbound (light grey) C6: BT Loft in color Faded Quilt (blue) it is possible to use C1 where C5 is used.
