Take flight with Wooly Wings!

Long and shallow, this shawl looks like spread wings. The unique shape of this shawl is achieved with short rows. Worked from the bottom up, Wooly Wings starts with a short section of stockinette brioche, then the first pair of wings is worked in garter stitch followed by a lace and cable pattern.

Finally, the second pair of wings incorporates little cables. The cables continue out of the lace and cable pattern and grow from the middle to the tip of the shawl! Then a garter stitch border is worked over all sts.

Pattern includes written instructions and a chart for the lace section (and written row by row instructions of the chart). You should be familiar with One-Color Brioche and the wrap and turn method of doing short rows.
