Contrasting stripes add a dramatic touch to this variation of the “On Top of the Mountain Shawl.” The “Echo from the Top of the Mountain” triangle shawl features an interesting color-block wing with unevenly spaced stripes that enhance the asymmetrical colorwork. Whether worn around the neck or over the shoulders, this shawl is a lot of fun to style!

• A great pattern for an adventurous beginner.
• Construction involves simple stitches and relatively uncomplicated shaping.
• With increases at the center of every third row, the shawl begins with a diamond-shaped Main Panel. This center panel is quick and easy to crochet, and the pattern is easy to memorize.
• After the center panel is complete, you will work one wing at a time, decreasing along the top edge to create a triangle. These wings require a little more concentration.
• Pattern includes a Row Tracker Chart to help you keep track of the pattern repeats as you go. Just add a check mark in the Done column when you’ve completed the sequence listed. When you put the project down for a bit, this will also help you to know where you left off when you pick it back up again.
