This top-down shawl is knitted with a chunky weight yarn like West Wool Cargo. Twisted Ribbing flows from the center toward the chevron border. Yarn over eyelets shape the fabric into a smooth semi-circle with I-cord edges framing the shawl. Choose one main color and three contrasting colors for the garter stitch chevron border. This pattern is beginner friendly with video tutorials linked throughout the instructions to help you cast on, bind off, and weave in ends as you knit.
