The second pattern in my Pride series, this employs a series of brightly-colored mini skeins into a generously-sized rectangular rainbow of a shawl. I designed the color transitions with star-like motifs that keep you entertained as you knit, allow the colors to really shine against each other, and celebrate the sparkle of Pride! Difficulty Level: Easy Skills/Techniques: slip-stitch colorwork; optional: knit/purl long-tail cast on Yarn: 1600 yards of fingering or sock yarn in 8 colorways.  That’s Morehouse Merino Lace! Your kit contains one skein of each of the following colorways.  (Want to design your own palette?  Get the pattern here and choose your 8 colors of lace here!)
