Description:
This is a striking brioche shawl, very warm due to the alpaca content in the yarn but not too bulky to wear. Choose two high contrast colours for the most eye-catching results. The shaping is simple and easy to memorise making this a relaxing knit.

Colour A: 2 skeins Hedgehog Fibres Alpaca DK, 100g/225m. Pictured in Magpie.
Colour B: 2 skeins Hedgehog Fibres Alpaca DK, 100g/225m. Pictured in UFO.
Merino DK would be a great alternative yarn, we tend to have more colours available, check out the selection here.

3.75mm, circular needle would be better due to the width, but the garment is worked flat.
