These yarns were in my stash and begging to be caked and cast-on for a shawl. I was going to re-knit an old design but then decided I could go for something nice and squishy. So a combination of garter and brioche was just the result I wanted.

This triangular shawl is knit from the top down and includes an i-cord edge.
