Triangular Shawl by Laura Zukaite

Craft: Knitting

This triangular shawl is easy, breezy, summer knitting at its best. Worked from a long cast on edge and shaped with continuous decreases, it features knit-in garter stitch borders. Textured bands of stockinette and lacy start stitch interplay with the warm greens of Akari colorway #4 Kenroukuen Garden. The color striations widen as the shawl narrows, adding visual interest to this simple shape. Drape it across your shoulders to chase away evening breezes or wrap it bandana-style for a more casual effect.
