Concourse
This garter stitch shawl begins as a quarter circle worked in mosaic patterns. Then, cast on stitches and simple short row shaping transforms the shawl to a bias knit triangle.
Mosaic patterns are worked using one colour only per row. Each colour is worked for 2 consecutive rows. Stitches in the colour not being worked are slipped with the yarn to the wrong side. The mosaic patterns are presented in chart form only.
