My sample is knitted with a knit kit from Yarnz2go .

The Morton shawl with an accent on simplicity, though a little drama as well. The shawl gives you the perfect balance of colors, textures, softness and wearability and it can be styled countless ways. Knitted from the bottom up, the shawl gets decreased on one side to create a point and also offers a simple stitch pattern in the middle portion. Knitted with three yarns in three distinct color and texture changes.

The pattern is fully written and also offers a chart. The size is 77” in overall length and 15” in height.
