Batty Cats is a triangular shawl, worked side to side in mosaic technique - bold and graphic, it’s not a dainty accessory! Worked in two contrasting colors, it’s sure to become the focal point of your outfit.
I had a bit of a hard time naming this one - everyone saw something else in this pattern, I saw bats and cats so here it is - Batty Cats!
Mosaic technique means you are only knitting with one color per row - the pattern is charted ONLY. But no worry - full instructions how to work the charts are included to have you going in no time! Because this is garter-based mosaic, there is no purling! You heard me, ZERO purling:)
Modification instructions are also provided to make your shawl smaller or larger.
