TRIANGULAR CURVE
This simple shawl pattern will create a stunning curved triangle. You can use several colors of leftover stash yarn and it will have stripes, or you can use a self-striping or variegated yarn with long color changes. You can use fingering weight yarn, or DK weight, and you can knit it as long as you want.

MATERIALS
Yarn used in the sample:
Lotus Sunset: 70% Wool – Merino; 30% Manufactured Fibers - Soy Silk (120 meter/131 yard per 50 gram ball). I used 5 balls.
Needles:
4 mm/US 5 needle, preferably circular 80 cm/32”
If you use fingering weight yarn I would use a 3 mm needle.
Notions:
Tapestry needle

GAUGE
Is not really important, but the fabric should be not too loose and it should still have drape. With my 5 balls of yarn the wingspan of the sample is 180 cm/6 feet, and the depth is 60 cm/2 feet.
