CONSTRUCTION

• Shawl is worked flat beginning at top center with a provisional cast on over a small number of stitches. The shawl is shaped outward towards the edges at a rate of 4 increased stitches every other row. The triangle is finished with a wide knitted-on edging that is attached to the perimeter of the central triangle as it is worked, eliminating the need for a traditional (and inelastic) bind off.
