I really love knitting shawls side-to-side. There is something so rewarding in the increase-then-decrease approach, like climbing a hill and then running down it. Colour blocks, mosaic stitches, and a bold edging make this a shawl to dream about! The edging is knit on after the centre triangle is done.
