This basic shawl has a triangle shape. It is knit flat in stockinette stitch and has a garter stitch border. It is shaped with symmetrical increases, so the left and right sides are identical.
The shawl is worked top-down starting from the center of the neck, making it easy to adjust the size of the finished shawl. You can easily make it larger or smaller.
This basic pattern is great if you want to knit your first triangle shawl.
