It's a Spring Kerchief! For this gorgeous and lightweight shawl we used Malabrigo Yarns Silkpaca held doubled. The gradation keeps the simple pattern interesting as you knit. The laceweight yarn held doubled makes a super cozy fabric without being heavy.
Here's a great one skein project using Done Roving Frolicking Feet DK Gradients. Super soft and squishy, the Gradient yarn is a perfect compliment to the Leaves on the Line pattern, changing colors just as you begin the lace portion!
Here's a great transition piece. Knit in Tahki Yarns Kismet, a brushed alpaca-blend that creates lighter-than-air fabrics. Its high-yardage produces pullovers and cardigans with as few as 3 balls! The Good Cheer Tunic, sized Small - 3X, uses just 3 - 5 balls. Knit in a Zig Zag Lace pattern, this simple pattern is easy to knit!
