A simple little vortex shawl
As a newer knitter, you may be looking for ways to expand your skills. A Simple, Little Vortex Shawl could be for you. Using a basic triangle shape – knit in garter stitch and adding a few asymmetric increases and decreases creates a vortex shawl shape – sort of a twisty, curved elongated triangle that fits very nicely around your neck and shoulders. Interesting but not difficult to execute – great for the knitter who wants to expand his or her skills and experiment with different shaping options and holding two strands of yarn together as one (marl). Use a dreamy combination of yarns – pair a strand of squishy, fluffy cashmere, wool and silk or mohair blend with another strand of DK weight soft merino. Choose colors that you love and have fun. This shawl requires comparatively little yarn for a huge payoff. Generally requires 1 skein of each yarn.
