Give Me the Slip is a gorgeous shawl! It is knit side to side in a long biased rectangle, and the beautiful mosaic stitch pattern is created with slipped stitches. Only one color is worked per row, so it’s an easy first foray into colorwork.
I used a solid main color paired with a 6-color gradient set from Miss Babs, but you can use any number of contrast colors from just one to an entire stash clean-out! As written, the shawl is 60” (150cm), but can be bound off at any time, longer or shorter.
