Designed with variegated and leftover scrap yarns in mind, this shawl is knit in one piece by picking up stitches to join one square at a time. Variegated yarns will produce lovely stripes, and the one-piece construction makes it easy to work with multiple yarns. The easy modular knitting is fast and fun... Depeche Mode truly is the perfect name for this design!
