Cheryl Faust has a new shawl pattern. I love her Mosaic Shawls.
Everglow celebrates a glow that lingers — the soft light at dusk, the warmth that remains after the sun has set, the sense of continuity between where we’ve been and where we’re going.
Everglow is a contemporary triangular shawl knit from the top down. From its I-cord cast-on, the shawl unfolds gradually, allowing the shifting tones to reveal themselves at a satisfying pace.
The striking mosaic stitch pattern creates visual depth while remaining approachable, as the colorwork is worked with just one color per row. Subtle shifts add interest without disrupting the flow of the knit, making Everglow both engaging and meditative on the needles.
The finished shawl drapes beautifully and styles effortlessly — worn wrapped close for warmth or loosely layered as an everyday accessory. Everglow is designed to feel timeless yet contemporary, offering a quiet statement through thoughtful detail and refined construction.
Why You’ll Love This Knit
- Mosaic knitting using one color per row
- A satisfying, repeatable stitch pattern you’ll quickly memorize.
- A balanced triangular shape that wears effortlessly and drapes beautifully.
- Visually rich fabric created from simple techniques
- Versatile styling for everyday wear or special moments
Cheryl uses a DK weight yarn with Spincycle Dream State. If I was picking yarn for the shawl I would use Malabrigo Rios. You can use two contrasting colours of Rios or one colour of Rios with one colour of Dream State. I haven’t purchased the pattern but I’m confident in saying that you can use any thickness of yarn with the appropriate needles. The mosaic stitch pattern keeps repeating so you can knit the shawl as large or as small as you want it.
