Notes From the Designer:
Duga is the Croatian word for rainbow. No matter the language, a rainbow remains a symbol of hope and renewal for people throughout the world. The Kaleidoscopic Hues Luster Sport Kit provides a rich palette to wrap yourself in the beauty and comfort of a rainbow. This beginner-friendly pattern is worked entirely in garter stitch. German short rows, which are far easier than you think, create the wedge shapes that give this long wrap its extra flare on each end. You can complete this project in 21 days if you finish just one wedge every three days!

- Gauge is not crucial to this project, but will affect yardage and size.

- You may find it helpful to place removable stitch markers every 50 sts.
- For best results, block your shawl to emphasize flared shape.
