Notes
Pattern is constructed as a modern hap shawl. The inner triangle begins at the bottom point and is worked to the top, using a yarn over at the beginning of each row to increase. The inner triangle is bound off along the top edge (with the larger double pointed needle) using a reverse stockinette stitch i-cord, and stitches are picked up around the triangle in each yarn over, interspersed with yarn overs, to create a lattice-like structure. Extra stitches are decreased out, and the shawl is finished up with a knitted-on edging, worked alternating smaller double pointed needle with working needle.
