Mi Corazon

It's about time!  I was provided with some yarn by the lovely Lizzy Inman of Vice Yarns in her (then) new neon colorway.  I choose the Neon Yellow one or as I like to refer to it, Highlighter Yellow, and got designing away.  A big thank you to Lizzy Inman of Vice Yarns for her generous support!

The result of that designing session is a shawl called Mi Corazon.  Mi Corazon is knit using just one skein of Vice Paradigm yarn (80% Merino, 20% Nylon) with US size 6 (4.0 mm) needles.  I knit mine on 40"/100 cm circular needles, however since it is a smaller shawl, I think you could get away with 32"/80 cm circular needles.  The pattern includes both charted and written instructions.  The best part? It's currently on shawl sale for $4 until the end of the month!  (Can you tell I have shawls on the brain???)  No coupon code required!  The regular price will be $6 starting on April 1st.  


This shawl was named for the tiny hearts created from the stitch pattern.  I must admit though - I didn't see the hearts at first until a fellow knitter & friend pointed out the heart pattern to me.  But from that point forward it was all I could see when I looked at the shawl.    It was a joy to both design & knit this shawl; I hope that you enjoy it as well!
