Lightning Strike Shawl
This design is a knit version of crochet shawl Bolt, crochet design available only in the book 60 Quick Crochet Projects for Beginners
Description:
Lightning Strike shawl is an asymmetrical triangular shawl, that works from a tip with constant increases on one side. Regularly alternating sections of a lace stitch pattern and horizontal ribbing are finished with several bind-off stitches to create a zig-zagging edge.
The shawl has several loops on the widest side. These loops work as a fastening, push the narrow end through the loops and you don’t need to tie the shawl or use the shawl pin to hold the shawl in place.
