How to Knit Beginner Cityscape Shawl with Marly Bird. This unique shawl uses two different colors of a long color changing yarn to create a lovely gradient color pattern. This pattern is made easy with the help of this free knit shawl tutorial video.
Get the full pattern details over on the blog: marlybird.com/knit-beginner-c...
Learn how to do simple knit stitches that you need to know in order to make this pattern. How to do the knit stitch, how to do the knit front and back (kfb), how to do the center double decrease (cdd -- decreases two stitches), how to do the slip slip knit (ssk), how to do the knit 2 together (k2tog).
This pattern recommends a size 10 needle and I suggest using circular needles to accommodate the number of stitches you will have on your needle.
This video shows you how to do the stitches in the English style as well as the Continental style of knitting.
Beginner knitters and shawl lovers will both love this pattern.

    Hi Marley - I finished my first knit with this shawl. I really like this shawl but I wish the middle section could be larger so it can cover my back a little more so I can wear it as a wrap than like a scarf. I don’t know how and wonder if you can give me some help with this? Always appreciate your videos. You are such a great teacher and I like you give us a big picture and when and where things start to change!

    I love this pattern! I've been wanting to make a simple yet attractive shawl. My current dachshund is a pouncing little terrorist. So I rarely work in patterns that accumulate large numbers of stitches on the needle. This is just perfect for me! It is also a lovey pattern for making prayer shawls. Thank you! Is it possible to do this in a solid color? And if so are there any adjustments that I will need to make in working the pattern? I liked and subscribed!

    I don't know a lot about knitting, what I do know I have learned from watching your videos. When I watched this one I saw that there were a couple of new stitches for me to learn so I am excited about that. But when I was looking at the pattern after downloading from the Red Heart website, looking in the "Notes" section it said to move the marker one stitch to the right after making the CDD. In your video, if I'm not mistaken, you kept the marker on the CDD stitch. My question is --- is it crucial to the pattern to move the marker or am I misunderstanding something?
