This and That Shawl

Already into the 3rd quarter of the year! What!? This is my third design with Leading Men Fiber Arts and I adore the color combo. I love pulling elements from different designs of mine and creating something new. This and That Shawl has lots of little different elements, 'A Little bit of This and a Little bit of That' pulled from other designs. 


This and That shawl features asymmetric shaping, stripes, bobbles, and finishing with a little lace. My original sample uses a main color and 3 mini skeins used to highlight the colors in the variegated yarn. You could make your version super scrap happy and make every bobble/stripe row a different color. 


The way the shawl is designed leaves plenty of room for customization. If you have more yardage you can expand your repeats, make a 2 color version and highlight your 2 favorite colors together, or use a gradient ball of yarn in your stripes! 

Any fingering weight yarn you're comfortable wearing around your neck will be great! If you're interested in my original colors you can check out the Ravelry project bag here.
