Yarn for Crochet Fade Shawl

I used 3 similiar colours which blended beautifully together. The yarn is a lovely cotton/merino mix. The stitch definition was crisp and smooth and a pleasure to crochet with!

You can make your shawl following the colour sequence below or have fun making your own. The shawl would also look amazing in a gradient cake yarn.
