Thanks for checking out the Artefact Shawl! This large shawl is a relaxing knit composed of a few different techniques. Slipping stitches while alternating colors creates long, smooth vertical lines. These lines then extend into textured, ribbed columns followed by a lattice of raised and crossed stitches. This shawl is a great opportunity to show off two complimentary colors you’ve been saving for something special. It knits up fast and is a perfect project to work on while multi-tasking. Whether you are knitting it for yourself, a friend, or a family member, the future recipient is bound to love it!
