Bubbly Rapids Shawl, an asymmetrical shawl, was inspired by the bubbles and ripples from excited water rolling onto the shore. The constantly changing patterns in the waves and bubbles of water keep you mesmerized.

The shawl is an asymmetrical triangle which is worked sideways, so it is adjustable to any length yardage. The bubbly lace edging spice to this garter stitch shawl.

The shawl is knit from the tip with a simple lace edging, garter stitch and an I-cord edge. The lace edging wrong-side rows have the pattern stitches, and the right-side rows have the increase stitch. The shawl is interesting while still being easy enough to knit while talking or watching your favorite TV show.
