Inspired by the majestic beauty of Cheyenne Cañon in Colorado, this shawl captures the essence of its soaring rock formations, the vibrant hues of the Colorado sky, and the cool breeze that is always present at a high altitude (I know it’s a bit of a stretch, but it sounds pretty, right?). This shawl features simple mosaic colorwork, eyelets, and rows upon rows of wrapped stitches which means this shawl knits up quick and effortlessly!

APPROXIMATE MEASUREMENTS
Length: 51” (130 cm)
Depth: 18” (46 cm)
Note: If you use Granola, the suggested yarn, it has the property of stretching a lot when wet and shrinking again as it dries, especially if you use a machine to dry the yarn (as suggested by the manufacturer). If you machine wash/dry the project, rather than wet block your project, the measurements will likely vary from the approximated measurements.
GAUGE
21 sts / 44 rows = 4” / 10 cm in Mosaic Colorwork using larger needles (US 7 (4.5 mm)) after wet blocking
