With this as our goal, here are some patterns for elegant shawls that make amazing use of the gentle and gradual transition of colors. Consequently, there are no sharp, contrasting breaks here. Oh no, instead, as your eye wanders along the shawl, you find yourself moving between worlds of color without pause. mysterious
