Fantoosh!
Fantoosh is a top-down triangular shawl featuring a tesselating allover motif defined by centred double decreases and twisted stitches. In Scots, fantoosh means “fancy”, or a wee bit “over the top”. Two sizes are given in the pattern but you can easily adjust the number of repeats to make a shawl to suit you and your yarn. Happy knitting!
