Cast on the pretty Mock me shawl~

This easy to create crescent shaped shawl is mostly knitted in Garter stitch, top down with an ever increasing and interesting lacy appearing edge. The bottom border is done in a mock cable pattern, hence the name. It is very easy to do and without a cable needle! Everyone will think you cabled the beautiful border~
A perfect fool the eye project…

Hopefully you will enjoy your shawl as much as I am enjoying mine!

The blocked measurements are: 89” in total span along border and 15” in height.
