This asymmetric triangle shawl is a fun therapeutic make, containing a mix of open work triangles and textured circular bobbles. This geometric-inspired design throws shapes around like confetti.

The shawl is worked in rows from the point increasing outwards using a triangle open work motif, interspersed with solid stripes peppered with bobbles.

Skills Used
This is a relatively simple pattern worked mainly with double crochet (UK treble crochet) and chain stitches, with some cluster style bobbles and some slip stitching to keep it interesting.
There is some simple colourwork which you can adapt to suit your style.
