The hottest shawl on people’s needles right now is Find Your Fade. The simple garter and lace pattern offers a relaxing knit that lets the colors do all the talking. While we’ve seen wonderful inspiration for this project all over ravelry and instagram, we think that this shawl is the perfect pairing for our Friea Shawl Balls.
The wonder of this handpainted yarn is that it gradually melts from one color to the next. You can go crazy with brights, fade from one neutral to the rest, or travel across a spectrum. With just four balls to pair together you have endless color combinations and options available to you and far fewer ends to weave in!
