Bila-shawl is first knitted sideways to form a long shallow triangle. The border features modified traditional Crown of Glory pattern after picking up stitches from the lower edge of the triangle. The traditional Hap-shawl yarn overs form a smooth upper edge. There’s two options for the very edge, less holes, beige shawl or more holes, red shawl.

The pattern has both written and charted instructions.
