Arising
Knit with fingering weight yarn, Arising features a garter stitch body embellished with rays of slipped stitches. The delicate brioche that follows is reminiscent of tiny buds, reaching up for the first warm days of Spring. A garter stitch border adorned with petite bobbles creates a tidy edge.
Color Combinations
Arising can be knit in two colors as shown, or three colors. The body of the shawl uses an entire skein of fingering weight yarn (at least 400yds). The brioche section and bobble border use a good portion of two skeins (one of each color, both at least 400 yds). You should have enough brioche CC yarn leftover to make two tassels, if desired.
