Yara by Natasja Hornby, English

Inspired by the beautiful textiles Morocco is famous for, Yara is an absolute feast of texture and color. The tweedy background and the easy to work mosaic bands encourage some serious colorplay that will almost always lead to fabulous results.Charts are given for a version with dark shapes on a light background and vice versa, so you can freely choose what kind of Yara you want. Go for dark and moody or light and summery, or everything in between. Use your imagination and creativity to make her truly yours, and I’m sure she’ll make you proud!

CONSTRUCTION
Yara is a very wearable, crescent shaped shawl. A prominent design feature are the vertical and horizontal mosaic bands that adorn the shawl. To achieve this look the upper body of the shawl is worked from side to side. For the lower shawl body, stitches are picked up at the edge of the upper shawl body and worked downwards.
The pattern contains a photo tutorial for the bobble bind off, and how to knit the bobble backwards.
