Traditional meets modern in this bold, graphic shawl. Stripes adorn the asymmetrical sides of a central, log cabin block. Additional “logs” along the bottom edges unify all three sections of the shawl.

This pattern calls for 4 colors of Lanaloft Sports Weight. I recommend 2 skeins of the color C (the teal/edge color in the pictured sample) just to be safe. As a bonus, you’ll have plenty left in the extra skein to knit up a pair of the coordinating Rowell Mitts.
