Starburst Shawl (Ravelry $5.95)

Check out the effect of this stitch pattern with the gradient yarn! Each skein is wound such that the darkest color is in the center, fading outward to the lightest version of that hue. Play with the contrast and color while working the delightfully rhythmic texture of this shawl. And speaking of texture, it's hard to imagine any other summer weight shawl that is so soft and light and yet sooo cozy. It truly is like being hugged by a cloud!

The best aspect of this project is that despite the color change, there are only a few ends to weave in. You can start wearing it within moments of finishing! Find more tips for effective color coordinating and finishing here.
