Choose three colors of dk or worsted weight yarn to knit the striped asymmetrical shawl. The pattern begins very small at the top-center as you knit stripes. Increases are added gradually to form the asymmetric wingspan. The resulting shawl is an expansive shape with beautiful geometric drape. Garter stitch frames the border of the shawl with a contrast color for a bold simple finish. Enjoy wrapping the shawl around your shoulders this woolly season!
