Lines of eyelets emerge at right angles from snaking cables, emphasizing the graceful length of this shawl as a simple gradient triangle extends into a trapezoid that wraps over the shoulders. On one side, the mini-skeins are reintroduced for a final flutter of narrow stripes.
The shawl begins with a standard top-down triangular shawl construction, which becomes the centre of the shawl. Then each side of the triangle is worked out laterally.
This knitting pattern includes both charts and written instructions, modification notes, and a schematic with measurements.
