Construction Notes

This one skein shawl is knit as a mirror image of itself, so you can knit to the center point by following stitch counts or by weighing your yarn. If you are weighing your yarn, begin decreasing when you have 55 g of yarn left which will give you a buffer, so that you don’t run out of yarn at the end of the shawl.
