Joanna

Introducing the charming “Joanna” triangle shawl, an easy-to-knit accessory that will elevate your knitting collection. This delightful shawl features an intriguing surface design, enhanced by the beautiful combination of hand-dyed yarn and captivating stripes of left and right-leaned crosses (also known as cables), making it a stunning eyecatcher for any occasion.

This shawl is expertly knitted sideways, allowing you to start at one end of the length side. You will increase stitches on one side until you reach the elegantly pointed bottom tip, where you'll then begin to decrease the stitches. This technique is particularly beneficial for knitters using just two skeins of wool. Simply stop increasing when you finish the first skein and switch to decreasing with the second skein to ensure that you have ample yarn throughout your project. This method not only creates a visually appealing shawl but also guarantees that you'll have enough material to complete your masterpiece.

One of the standout features of the “Joanna” shawl is the versatility in creating the left and right-leaned crosses. The pattern includes detailed instructions on how to work these cables with or without a cable needle, catering to knitters of all skill levels. Whether you're a novice or an experienced knitter, you’ll find joy in mastering these techniques as you craft your shawl.

Measurement: The finished shawl measures 76 ½” x 21” (195 x 53 cm), making it a perfect wrap to keep you cozy or a stylish accessory to complement any outfit.
