Cirro Shawl
The Cirro Shawl is a shallow crescent shawl with elongated tips. These elongated wings allow the shawl to stay in place while being worn without while the shallow depth ensures that the shawl won't feel too bulky around your neck.
I designed Cirro with the intention of thoughtfully utilizing variegated yarn. My sample is made with a variegated yarn as the man color with eyelet stripes of a beautiful tonal blue yarn. These eyelet rows break up the variegated yarn so you don't get overwhelmed with the uniqueness of the yarn. Alternatively you can use a variegated yarn for your contrast color and allow it to take on a new life.

My sample is made with 3 skeins of BadSheepYarn in Icy Fog and 1 skein of Raven. Yarn kits are available at Badsheepyarn.com.
