Shawls are great summertime projects, and as we’ve talked a bit about color this week, why not feature some colorful shawl patterns?

These projects show off how you can play with color, stripes, and texture to create some wearable pieces of art.

Here are a few of our favorite patterns…

Why we love it: While it’s more wrap than shawl we can’t get enough of the crazy stripes and short row spots in this amazing pattern.

Why we love it: While the muted colors of this small shawl are lovely, we’re big fans of the i-cord edging that gives it a perfect finish.

Why we love it: This asymmetrical shawl only uses one color at a time and it’s all in garter stitch. That makes it perfect for movie night knitting!

Why we love it: Another good name for this shawl might be “kitchen sink” because it has everything from bobbles to brioche. There’s a reason it’s one of his most popular patterns.
