The elegant simplicity of knit/purl texture in this shawl creates a subtle design that resembles the end of an arrow.

This pattern is suitable for a beginner and can be adapted to accommodate greater or smaller amounts of yarn. It looks just as nice in a gradient or a yarn with long color repeats as it does in a solid, semisolid, or slightly variegated yarn. It’s also a great pattern to use with handspun.

This pattern uses the following skills and stitches:
- provisional cast on and picking up stitches along a garter edge (for the garter tab)
- knit and purl when working flat
- directional increases (m1L and m1R)

In addition to yarn and needles that give the recommended gauge, you will need four stitch markers and a yarn needle to weave in ends. Instructions are included in the pattern for how to adjust the size of your shawl if you have more or less yarn than specified.
