Artemisia
This asymmetric triangle-shaped shawl uses a textured pattern that lets a stockinette band travel on a reverse stockinette background. The movement is achieved with increases and decreases. Artemisia is framed with 2 selvedge stitches along both sides and increases are worked every other row along the left side and integrated into the textured pattern.
You can decide on your preferred size and make your shawl unique.
The shawl is aesthetically reversible – looking its best, whichever side is facing.
The directions are given as charts and fully written.
