This bottom up shawl uses Cascade’s “Souk” yarn to great effect. Knitting a stocking stitch triangle for the main body. Stitches are then picked up around the edges to form the garter stitch border. This self striping yarn does all the work for you. Creating a colourful, lightweight, yet warm garment.
