The MOON SHAWL starts with a basic band in k2, p2 ribbing, followed by a single row in garter stitch, which starts in the center of work.

The scarf can be knitted in a single color or with colorful stripes.

The color way is shaped by short rows, starting from the center of work and finally edged with the second ribbing band, that is ending in tips together with the basic band.

The instructions are calculated for three different lengths, so that they can be worn either 2 times, 3 times or 4 times wrapped around the neck. For thicker or thinner yarns, the corresponding size should be worked.
