Cotton Candy ShawlDesigned by Rachel BrockmanAn oversized shawl is one of our favorite things. Getting lost in the soft comfort of the yarn and delicious colors reminds us of a nostalgic sweet treat. The aptly named Cotton Candy Shawl is wonderfully fun to make. Simple garter stitch allows you to focus on the modular construction and gorgeous Donnina yarn. The bright shades and color blocking mean you can wear this beauty year-round.SIZESOne SizeFINISHED MEASUREMENTSWidth: 42”Length: 62”MATERIALSFibra Natura Donnina (100% superwash extrafine merino; 50g/180 yds)224 Navy (A) – 1 ball210 Sweet Pea (B) – 3 balls201 Vanilla (C) – 2 ballsNeedles: US size 7 (4.5 mm) 24” circular or longer (to accommodate large number of sts) or size needed to obtain gaugeNotions: Tapestry needle, stitch markersGAUGE19 sts x 38 rows = 4” in garter stSave time, check your gauge.PATTERN NOTESThis shawl is is knit modularly, beginning with a mitered square.
