I really love how versatile a shawl is. It can be used to keep the neck cozy, it can add a pop of color, and it looks great on everyone. I designed this shawl to be enjoyed and worn proudly by people of all genders, it’s a ‘Shawl for everyBODY’. I loved how garter looked but I knew that stockinette would be great too. So, I wrote instructions FOR BOTH! This should be a relaxing and satisfying knit.

Details: This narrow shawl is knit all in one piece from end to end. There is a simple cable running along the top and a narrower one along the bottom edges. Instructions are written, no charts. Simple yarn overs are used for increases and to add a little more visual interest. The shawl is designed to use up both skeins.
