I pulled the variegated yellow skein out of deep stash a while back. It is Alcidina Momentum in, fittingly enough, Corona. I was thinking of making another boomerang shawl, but I hadn’t caked it up, and it has been sitting in the top of a project bag for a while. I recently saw the Ziggy Shawl by Joji Locatelli in the Kitterly newsletter. Although the shawl is designed for a single color, they were offering a two color version. It occurred to me that my yellow skein would look good for the garter stitch sections. I went in search of a solid color for the lace sections. I was originally thinking about a red, but that just didn’t click. Then I spotted the green in a box of yarn from Sundara Yarns. It is actually part of a set for a temperature scarf - you know, one of those scarves that record the high temperature each day. I ordered the set, but then never started the scarf, and decided that the set gave me some nice semi-solid colors for coordinating with other yarns in my stash.
