Sunday Night Cast-On is a lovely triangular shawl knit top-down primarily in Stockinette stitch. The yarnover rows are easy to knit and add interest and a little fun to an otherwise simple knit and purl shawl. An elongated picot bind-off is used as a beautiful accent, but can be substituted with a regular bind-off if preferred.
