Gradient shawl
This shawl is made with inspiration from Jellina-creations pattern Olivia cowl
http://www.jellina-creations.nl/blog/patroon-olivia-de-unicatcowl-met-een-vleugje-jeans
The shawl is made with two different kinds of yarn to create a beautiful effect. You have to cut the yarn after each row to get the row patterns facing the same way. This meens there will be a lot of ends to work away. Wait with doing that until after you added the border since it will give more space to hide the ends.
