Gumdrop is so cute and so versatile. This shallow triangular shawl is worked from the top down in simple Stockinette Stitch with carefully placed color stripes. The edging, reminiscent of old-school pom-pom trim, is knitted with bobbles and added to the shawl with 3-Needle Bind-off…easy-peasy!

Instructions included for 4 sizes…small & large shawl, small & large kerchief
