Hi Friends,
This is my first big project with two colors. A baby shawl that has been gifted to Ooviya[Mangai's] daughter Baby Sai Dhanya.
The pattern I picked it up from my library book Harmony guide to knitting
Materials
Yarns 2 colors as per your choice
A pair of knitting needles size 8
The pattern:
Cast on 161 stitches
K1, p1,k 1, p1 for 6 rows [ this will become the edge rows so that it will not curl inside
