This pattern was designed to accompany the Stitch Space custom yarn colorway, Missouri Sky, created in collaboration with SweetGeorgia. It would also be suitable for other sock weight yarns, where you wish to show off the various colors, and a more complex pattern might get lost because of this. The triangle shaped shawl utilizes dropped stitches, eyelet rows & increases. There are also short rows added to create a gently curving edge that stays on your shoulders, or around your neck easier. Fringe tops the style off, and is sure to get you noticed. Wear it as a small shawl, or with the point forward kerchief style!
