This is another exploration into machine knitting shawl shapes. This pattern contains instructions for a basic stockinette symmetrical triangular shawl knit on a flat bed knitting machine, but it can easily be customized for any patterning you desire.

This shawl can be knit at any gauge on any flat bed knitting machine, so try it out in multiple yarn weights for lace weight shawls that can be worn on a warm spring day or bulky weight shawls to snuggle into during the deep freeze of winter.

A gauge swatch may be needed if you have never worked with your chosen yarn on your chosen machine before. It is helpful to swatch in order to understand how your chosen yarn behaves under different machine settings, but it is not required to use this pattern.

This pattern assumes that the knitter has basic knowledge of the flat bed knitting machine being used. This assumption includes casting on with an e-wrap cast on, knitting with the carriage, decreasing, increasing with or without eyelets, and binding off.
