Malabrigo Rios, colors Whole Grain & Sagittarius

The signature hand-dyed colorways of Malabrigo bring garments & accessories to life. Each variegated skein is unique & incredibly fun to knit. We especially love the effect when these colorful skeins are knit with the backdrop of a solid or tonal.

The Lehigh by beloved designer Melanie Berg is a triangle-shaped, garter stitch shawl punctuated with a floral-inspired Bud pattern. The Bud pattern appears to wind across the shawl with simple garter rows that really pop due to the color contrast.

Here is what you need to start knitting:

  • Main color A: 4 skeins Malabrigo Rios, lead photo in Whole Grain
  • Contrast Bud color B: 2 skeins Malabrigo Rios, lead photo in Sagittarius
  • Size US 7, 40” circular needle
  • Size US F (3.75mm) crochet hook (used in Bud pattern)
