The All Points East Shawl is worked from the top down and available in two versions. The first version (shown in size small) begins with a plain stockinette background with a central leaf motif. The second version (shown in size large) begins with a “branch” onto which the central leaf motif is attached. From their different beginnings, both versions of the shawl lead to repeating leaf motifs. A bit of simple crochet lends a dewdrop edge.
