Rhubarb Fizz Shawl

The Rhubarb Fizz shawl is a long crescent shawl with a tucked stitch pattern and a slightly flouncy short-row garter border. The tuck stitch is fun to work and produces a lovely lacy fabric for the main body of the shawl. The shawl is knit from the middle bottom, the crescent shape is created by increasing on both edges of every row.
