Even though at first hand this pattern might look intimidating, it is fun and not all too difficult to knit. You begin at the center bottom with only 3 stitches. The center piece features faux cables. Leaves and bobbles are growing along the way up.
After that, the sides are picked up separately. Short rows will be worked on both sides of the shawl and everything falls into place.
This shawl can also be knit in just one color.
