This is a shawl of infinite choices.

The stitch pattern is inspired by crayons, melting together into swirls and drips of color. The instructions contain two different stitch patterns which are completely interchangeable. You can choose only one, alternate between the two, or change things up whenever you feel like it. I’ve added photos of some options to show the possibilities.

The pattern uses the stacked stitch technique to create the motif. There are videos showing this technique available on my YouTube channel.
