DESCRIPTION
This warm weather, cotton-blend shawl pattern is perfect for travel knitting or travel wearing. The asymmetric, three sided design features a sawtooth edge and delicate picot bind off.

My Process
My patterns are designed, not just written down, because I want your project to be a success!
Before knitting begins, I sketch ideas, test yarns, stitch swatches, create charts, do math and consider a variety of skills and construction methods. Each pattern uses standard knitting terminology and notations, is edited for technical accuracy and has a logical, easy-to-read format.
I do the work so you can relax and enjoy the knitting.
