This arched shawl begins at the center with an I-cord Tab Cast On. Yarn over increases quickly expand the shape. Garter stitch short row wedges add length to one side forming rays that gradually increase in size. The repetitive knit stitches and rhythmic short rows are easy to work while still maintaining your interest, a perfect travel project! Built in I-cord edges and an I-cord bind off outline the entire shape for a clean finish. Choose one color or create a striped version using yarns from your stash for a striped effect. The pattern includes color notes and yardage estimations to help you knit this shawl with lots of different yarn weights and color effects.
