PATTERN NOTES
This shawl is worked flat from the top down, beginning with a garter tab cast-on. Four stitches are increased on every right side row. Sections 1 through 6 are both written and charted for your convenience.

In this pattern, work all slipped stitches purlwise with working yarn held towards the front of work unless otherwise indicated.

When changing colors, do not break yarn at each color change. Instead, carry the yarn up the side of the work and twist the strands of yarn around one another every color change, taking care not to pull too tightly.
