Partnership

In equal partnership, two yarns are used to highlight each other in this shawl.

 

So often we have two skeins of yarn that are beautiful together, but many patterns have a one yarn dominating the other. This pattern lets both yarn shine equally and highlighting each other.

Yarn: 4-ply (fingering) yarn in merino or merino/nylon blend, approx. 365-420m/100g. 300-350m needed for each of Yarn A and Yarn B. 
Needles: 3.5-3.75 mm (US5) circular needles, or needles to get gauge 
Gauge: 22 sts/10cm blocked. It’s not crucial to get exact gauge, but a looser gauge may result in a game of yarn chicken towards the last stripe. 
Notions: stitch marker, optional extra needle for the cast on, scrap yarn for cast on. Finished measurements: approx 193 cm/76” wingspan, 56 cm /22” at the widest point.
