Geometrical Inspiration

This pattern presents a shawl, knitted in basic intarsia and short rows. Learning this pattern gives to the knitters endless possibilities for their own fantasies to create their own projects. The triangulars could be knit smaller or bigger, the stripes could be wider or narrower, there could be more stripes added etc. It is great project for using scrap yarn, which every knitter has in unlimited amounts. One of the three colors (the gray color in my sample shown here), should be the main color which ties it all together, I would suggest keeping it the same through the whole project. Just little portion of intarsia is involved in this pattern, and if you have never done intarsia then this project would be an easy way to learn this new technique. Short rows are the dominating part of the shawl.

Instructions are given line-by-line.
