This half-pi shawl is designed to work best with a long change colour gradient.

The colourway name - Dandelion Munchies reminded me of the seed heads of these flowers - which we used to call ‘fairy clock’ - blowing on them in order to tell the time.

This shawl starts off with stocking stitch and then blends into a lace pattern which looks complex but is actually a straightforward 12-st repeat.

There are only 7 increase rows in total so you can relax between each increase section and enjoy the gorgeous colour flow of the yarn.
