The Sylvan Paths Shawl is an asymmetrical triangle shawl featuring a design of branching leaves. The leaf pattern used for this shawl is based on the leaf pattern from my Sylvan Tales series of designs, modified to use a combination of garter stitch and one-color brioche stitch. For those who have also worked the Sylvan Tales pattern(s), the stitch pattern will look familiar, but it has been modified to simplify the pattern a great deal!

Pattern is provided in written form, and is also partially charted. Video demonstration links are provided for the brioche decreases as well.
