This is a triangular shawl made from triangular motifs in two colors.

It is based on the Sierpinski fractal which was first described in 1915 by Waclaw Sierpinski and is very famous if you happen to be a mathematician.

A version of the fractal pattern featured on the sleeves of Mysterio’s costume in the London battle scene of Marvel’s Spiderman Far From Home.
