“Contrast color triangle” almost gave me a headache but I think what is meant is:
(right side) slip 1 MC st from right needle to left and knit 2 sts together, knit rest of row.
(wrong side) ONLY USE THE CONTRAST COLOR STITCHES (NOT “knit the remaining sts” of the needle as the instructions say) so kf&b, knit until TWO CONTRAST COLOR STS remain, kf&b, k1, turn.
At least the triangle is forming now and I am happy.

All in all, every yarn was good in its own way but SilkBlend I loved the most. I am not a huge fan of bindoff-(then)pickup&knit but Arttu loved the shawl and the colors and the structure so, fine :-)

The book is great and I plan to execute a number of projects with Veera’s instructions!
