Endless Rainbow Shawl

This pattern is designed by Martina Behm.

Rainbow-colored yarns are all over the knitting world right now, and this is the pattern to make them really shine! On a semisolid background, the beautiful colors really stand out in thin stripes. On one edge of this long, triangular shawlette the yarn is given the opportunity to pool prettily in decorative little triangles. “Endless Rainbow” will look nice in a lot of different combinations of a solid and a multicolor fingering weight yarn. The reverse side is very neat, too.
The knitting is easy and relaxing garter stitch – and due to the strategic, very cunning and simple use of a crochet hook (I provide an instructional video for that), there will be only four ends to weave in when you have finished knitting your “Endless Rainbow” – hence the name.

Notes
You start at one corner of the triangle with a tiny rainbow-colored triangle, adding wider and wider rows as you go. The solid-colored and multicolored parts are joined modularly during the knitting (no sewing required).
