From Double the Stitches:
"For my sixth annual Local Yarn Store Day design, I am continuing to celebrate the beautiful, mutually beneficial relationship between knitters and their beloved yarn shops. Enter the Double Win Shawl - a striking mosaic knit shawl that embodies the joy of community, creativity, and connection. This rectangular shawl with gently flared ends weaves together two contrasting colors, each playing a vital role in creating bold, eye-catching patterns with simple slipped stitches. The result? A cozy, wearable piece that looks intricate but is easy and satisfying to knit. Much like the bond between knitters and their local yarn stores, Double Win is built on harmony."
