Starting at the neckline, this shawl is worked from the top down using raglan sleeve style increases to form its unusual shape. Thrown in some stripes and basic eyelet lace and you’ve got a show stopper that’s surprisingly easy and quick to work up!

Works well with a handspun self-striping or gradient because you can stop when you run out of handspun without affecting the shape you are creating.

The shape of the wrap helps keep it on your shoulders instead of having to fight with a rectangular or triangle shawl that just won’t stay put!
