Moonflower, knitted up in pretty alpaca/wool Owl, is worked by creating the border first, then picking up stitches along the inside of the border and knitting toward the center back neck. Yarnover short rows are used to shape the tips and corners of the border, which features a cool zigzag motif (see Reishi for another take on this stitch pattern).

Note: This is a preview from our newest book To The Point: The Knitted Triangle, by Leila Raven, which will be available for preorder on October 31, 2019. This pattern is not available for individual sale.
