Goodwin
Goodwin is a triangular shawl knitted from the top down in a stunning lace pattern, that seems very intricate but is surprisingly easy to knit! The stockinette pattern around the spine adds some extra spice, and before you know it you will be knitting a squishy garter border to frame the shawl.
The shawl can be knitted in a great variety of yarns and yarn weights, even lace weights have worked very well and produced a smaller shawl that is easy to wear for a touch of lace in an outfit.
