I love Anastasia Steele and I love this shawl pattern. It looks sleek and chic and will be a quick knit. It looks like a good pattern too for someone who has knit a little but ready to explore some stitches beyond knit and purl.

I must not be reading this correctly, because I can't tell what colour the contrast B yarn is, I've even gone to the yarnspirations web site and it also says Contrast B with no colour indicated. If anyone is able to see what I'm missing here, I sure would appreciate the help here. Thanks.

Hey there! It seems the yarn was removed from the original pattern because it's no longer available on their website. However, after doing a little digging, I would venture to say that Contrast B is the Caron Simply Soft Heathers Charcoal. Please bear in mind this is only an educated guess, so your wrap may end up looking differently from what is pictured. Happy knitting!

Yarnspirations Inquire AttachmentsMar 16 (10 days ago) to me Hello, Thank you for purchasing our products. Attached is the original pattern for the Greyscale Wrap. Contrast B is Charcoal Grey which is now discontinued. Please contact our office if you need further assistance. Kim Street Consumer Support 320 Livingstone Ave. S. Listowel, Ontario, Canada N4W 3H3-this was the reply I got back from Yarnspirations, the yarn colour was discontinued, so rather than noting this in the pattern they simply removed the colour name. Thanks.
