NOTES
• For techniques you don’t know, please visit our online knitting glossary at www.interweave.com/interweave-knitting-glossary.

• This wrap begins with the center colorwork panel, which is worked in the round from the center out. A garter stitch border is worked along two sides of the center square. The lace “wings” of the shawl are worked from the stitches on the other two sides to form the angled shape.

• The center panel is worked using the stranded colorwork method. Always pick up the background color over the pattern color and pick up the pattern color from under the background color. Keep floats loose. For floats longer than four stitches, tack stranded yarn on wrong side of work.
