This is a complete plug and play shawl. It’s set up so that you can change things up between 3 different stitch patterns for the center panel – making your shawl truly unique to you – and if you’re like me, enabling you to change up your stitches whenever you get bored (I’m squirrely!).

Worked flat, The Science Experiment contains written directions and charts. A handy-dandy progress tracker is included to help you with your rows and stitch counts.

This pattern is easily adapted to other yarn weights, simply keep adding yarn and working options until you’ve reached your desired shawl size!
