This pattern is published in 52 Weeks of Shawls by Laine Publishing.

Hugi is a reversible shawl with a highly textured fabric and a cool construction. The first part is knitted sideways in biased fabric. The second part is the border, knitted from the top down. This construction creates an elongated triangular shawl, perfect to be comfortably wrapped around the body. Hugi was inspired by the art of Helio de Oiticica, a Brazilian visual and performing artist.
