This shawl was designed specifically for Love In Stitches members! I wanted to create a fun, engaging pattern that kept you wanting to knit just one more row. Something you could work on confidently while on Zoom, watching Natalie’s youtube channel, or hanging out with friends. A sampler of sorts, this pattern includes six different very simple and straightforward stitch patterns repeated throughout the shawl. Written for two contrasting colors of DK yarn, this pattern is great for those random single skeins in your stash and also looks awesome with handspun!

This DK asymmetrical triangle shawl is worked from the corner to the bind off edge, with increases along the neckline edge. A clean bind off and edges are a thoughtful detail that really help this project shine.

I recommend tonal, solid, or very softly variegated yarns for this project. Choose yarns that are the same weight and base. I would say the two yarns in my sample have medium contrast.
