A lightweight shawl for any sock/fingering weight yarn. I’ve used 2 skeins/850m of a beautiful hand-dyed 4ply sock yarn and a simple repeating pattern to create this elegant, asymmetric shawl. The shawl starts at the narrow, bottom point, and one side is increased on every row to create a gentle curve. Once the depth of the shawl is achieved, both sides are kept straight until the pattern changes to create a flaring border panel. Pattern is written in English and uses UK terms.
