Product Details

This asymmetrical triangular shawl begins at one corner with some basic increases, decreases, and all Garter stitch. Once the shaping is nicely established (and you've learned the simple increase pattern), it will continue as the columns of teardrop shapes get incorporated.

 

This is where it gets interesting, IMHO, and some rules will be introduced to guide your knitting!

 

But "non-rule-followers" never fear! The first 82 rows are fully charted and written out so you can really "learn" the shaping and the rules before you are set free to finish the shawl! If you wish to knit more or fewer rows than I did for my sample, the instructions explain how to proceed.

Sample is shown in Knitpicks Capretta. Suggested substitutes are shown below.
