This very cosy triangular shawl in knitted on the bias as a sideways triangle. The centred bottom point and the curved top edge makes it a very comfortable shawl to wear.
It is worked in 4ply/ fingering weight yarn in two colours. The combination of comfortable garter stitch, gentle stripes and bold mosaic pattern results in a very interesting knit and an eyecatching finished project.
The bold graphic panel is created using the two colours and the mosaic knitting technique, which is easy to knit as it uses slipped stitches and only one colour at a time.
The pattern for the garter stitch body is written and the mosaic section in charted.

I have used above yarn, but any 4ply/fingering weight yarn will be fine to use for this shawl, you will need approximately 640 m/700 yrd, taking into account that different fibres result in different drape and effect of finished shawl.
