This is a simple shawl worked sideways, from tip to tip. The main body of the shawl is worked in garter stitch with little eyelets dotted along one edge. The shawl culminates in eyelet border, but this time the eyelets are bigger and bolder. The only difficulty you might encounter here is knitting two yarn overs created on previous row. To make sure the second yarn over doesn’t slip off the needle when the first one is knitted, hold it lightly with your finger.

The name for the shawl comes from Japanese for “mallard” which is the name of this beautiful colourway of TactileDactyl yarn.*
