TRISHA W L BY:M I CHAE LA COURT NE Y This shawl utilizes short rows to create a repeating triangle pattern.

The interchanging skeins gives depth to the variegated colours as each skein is alternated every 2 rows. The dense fabric created with this yarn makes for a piece with excellent drape that can be worn as a wrap, or an oversized scarf.

Gauge 4”=29 sts X 48 rows Finished Dimensions 17” X 52.5” 7
