This is a lovely shawl with an intriguingly unique construction. I was inspired by both outer-edge-up shawls and side-to-side shawls and wondered if, by using short-rows, I could combine the two in one seamless piece. The result was this stunning number with a delicate lacy edge and a vertical “grain” in the body.

With the help of my testers, I’ve been able to adjust this pattern to accommodate different learning styles. The written instructions are supplemented by charts, diagrams, and photos--all together they provide instructions as seamless as the piece itself!
