Knit with lace weight yarn, this triangular-shaped ‘shawldana’ makes a feathery-light accessory that can be worn so many different ways.. a soft and cozy little extra something for the shoulder seasons when there’s just a hint of a chill in the air.

Although it takes only 200 yards of yarn, increases on the wrong side as well as on the right side make it wide enough to wrap and tie around your neck. A simple i-cord bind off echoes the upper edge border while a diagonal eyelet column pattern creates a fabric with visual interest and understated texture.
