This shawl uses just two stitches, dc and dtr, and it is so easy to make. It has an increase section and a decrease section. Basically you are working the shawl sideways: you start on one end with very few stitches and increase every two rows until you get to the middle section, then start decreasing until you have very few stitches again and get to the other end of the shawl.

It measures 140cm long and it is 36cm at the widest part. Gauge is not very important, because of the way the shawl is constructed you can simply work up until you have a bit over half the yarn leftover and then start decreasing.

Materials:

2 x 100g skeins Ginger’s Hand Dyed Splendor 4ply in Wine O’Clock (used 160gr/640m). See post for other yarn options.

3.5mm hook

Needle to weave in ends
