FABULOUS ABACUS is a long, shallow triangular shaped shawl worked end to end in relaxing garter stitch. Its generous size, light fabric and easy to wear shape make it a versatile accessory.

The yarnovers, eyelet panel and stripes are not only design elements, but also provide an easy way of keeping track of where you are in the pattern and the number of repeats completed. Like an abacus, this shawl does the counting for you! The color blocked and striped design provides the perfect canvas to show off your favorite yarns, whether they be speckled, variegated, heathered, solid or a mix of them all! Sit back, relax and enjoy making your own Fabulous Abacus.
