Description
Green Pastures – This triangular-shaped shawl is worked along the bias, increasing one stitch along the wingspan edge every row and decreasing one stitch along the other edge every 4th row. This shawl features chunks of mindless garter stitch nestled between various lace panels.
Worked flat, this shawl pattern contains written directions and charts. A link to a handy-dandy progress tracker is included to help you with your row and stitch counts should you need it.
This shawl pattern shines well with solid, semi-solid, lightly variegated, or speckled yarns. Picking an appropriate yarn for this project will ensure the yarn and the pattern are not in competition with one another, rather they’re working together to create something magical.
