This is a rather simple side to side shawl knitted in garter stitch. I did not include a gauge as obtaining a gauge is not necessary for this project. Use the size needles that gives you the look and the drape you desire. Knit until half of your yarn remains and then begin the decrease.

UPDATE: June 7, 2013:
The pattern includes both the written and charted directions in one document. Left handed charts also included for my fellow lefties.
