Patchwork shawl:
A shawl inspired by those blankets made of hundreds little patches.
The patches on this shawl are squares and rectangles, large and small.
Some of the shapes have flowers like in a romantic quilt.
A pattern designed for a gradient yarn, but a plain colored yarn will work too :).
This pattern is my first shawl and not test-knitted. If you're knitting this pattern, please let me know if you find mistakes so I can correct them here.
Link to the pattern-page on Ravelry: Patchwork shawl.
(You'll find the charts there.)
Cast on 3: knit
7 rows, turn the knitting and start picking up at the side: (this is row 1 on
chart A)
* yo, pick up and k 1 * repeat 3 times, yo, pick up the 3 stitches from cast on.
ws: k3, p to 3 st before end, k3
On the wrong side rows: k3, p to 3 sts before end, k3.
Good luck with this pattern :)
