Triangulum
Triangle man,
Triangle man,
Triangle man hits particle man.
They have a fight -- triangle wins,
Triangle man.
--They Might Be Giants
This shawl was written as a companion for a piece I wrote on triangular construction. The simple construction showcases the magic of handpainted yarns and is fun to knit.
Triangulum is worked from side to side increasing to the center point where the decreases begin. The method of increasing and decreasing produces a versatile asymmetrical triangular shawlette. The pattern can be modified easily for larger or smaller sizes by adding or removing increases to the center point.
