Happy Mother's Day to all mummies! 《Diamond Shawl》 I'm finally done with my Mother's Day gift for my mum. I ❤💙💜 the color change as I work through it. The yarn is Twirls Deluxe in – supposedly- Morion Smoky Quartz from Hobbii. I said supposedly coz the color is n.a. now and the type of gradient is kinda different for my cake. I bought a 4 cakes in a bundle kind where all colors cannot be found on their sites now. I chose this coz the earthiness immediately reminded me of my mum. I hope she likes it 🤞🏻!

Materials

• Light Fingering Yarn (1000m±)
• Size 3.5 mm hook

For this Mother’s Day, I chose to make my mum a triangle shawl coz she’s always cold 🤣.
I had a few gradient cakes on hand, and this earthy tone was easily the first choice. As colors of the nature reminds me of my mum. It might be difficult if I had a green one too. 😅

The pattern is Diamond Shawl from hobbii.com which was easy enough with a few errors.
If you look into my Ravlery record for this project, you’d be able to see the cake of yarn used. I bought it in a 4-in-1 bundle which I thought were E.O.L colorways. However, you will see that the gradient – which runs twice – is slightly different from those on their sites.

I did the repeat in the pattern 4 times which ended nicely in the first white and stopped there. I needed a little more of the white for the edge and tassels, so I continued with the white from the outside instead. So this actually took just a little over half a cake. My mum has a small frame so I thought it suited fine. But one day, I’d like to try to make one with a full cake with proper color gradient.

Happy Mother’s Day to all mummies!
