Cedros is an asymmetrical triangular shawl with a built-in I-cord edge and is worked flat from the right tip to the left edge. The shawl is knitted of half brioche combined with a lace pattern and is equally pretty on both sides.

The half brioche stitch is worked using the k1 below technique, with a photo tutorial in the pattern. For experienced brioche knitters it’s easy to adapt the pattern to the standard brioche technique. The pattern is fully written out with stitch count and also charted.
