ROWALLAN is cozy, cabley dream of a shawl. It’s worked from the top down in stockinette stitch with gradually increasing cables. The increases are worked the same as for a full circle pi shawl, but the cables scrunch up the fabric in a lovely way so that the resulting shape is a semi-circle. The lower edge is gently ruffled from the last row of cable crosses, and finished with a tidy I-cord bind off.

Instructions for continuing the shawl for a larger piece are included.
