Gelato Shawl
Gelato Shawl features a crescent shape, plenty of garter stitch and a little bit of ribbing and short rows. Choose three colors in fingering weight yarn and cast on!
Stripes and short rows, my favorite combination of all times, never let you down. This long crescent shawl is spiced up with a little ribbing for texture interest. Play with your favorite colors and enjoy every stitch!
