This triangular garter stitch shawlette or kerchief scarf features a raised rib running down its center which causes its tip to resemble an arrow. It’s knit from the bottom point to the top edge.

The shawlette can be made with any DK or Worsted weight yarn. I recommend using needles which are a size larger than suggested for the yarn you’re using in order to get a looser and more flexible fit. One skein of Madelinetosh Tosh DK yarn in the colorway Graphite on size US 8 needles was used to make the scarf in the photos.
