My First Triangle Shawl
This large squishy triangular shaped shawl makes the perfect first shawl project. It is a simple garter stitch design that begins with a garter tab cast on and continues with a garter border, decorative eyelets, and centre spine. Knit this shawl using any weight yarn for a perfectly versatile wardrobe accessory. Suitable pattern for beginner knitters. Excellent stash buster.
