Inspired by the neon glow and eye-catching geometric designs of signs along the old Route 66, bright stripes of beautiful color zing through the fun and unusual shape of this long triangular shawl. Garter ridges, yarn overs, and simple decreases combine with a 22-ridge stripe design to create the illusion of luminous zig-zags.

The Eclectic Electric Shawl is a long, arrow-shaped shawl, worked flat from the point to the short side. The colors repeat in different stripe configurations 4 times, ending with a border.

Includes color charts for striping.
