Fun use of color and short rows make up the striking lines of Ela Torrente’s Trictangle shawl, knitted in three colors of worsted weight Owl. This generously-sized wrap features an interesting construction that begins with one striped pattern worked in short rows to form a triangle, then another striped pattern is work on a long diagonal, forming a wide rectangle when complete.
