SSP (slip stitch party)

This stunning asymmetrical triangle shawl pattern, known as SSP, is designed to be worked flat (sideways). It begins with an increase along one edge, creating a beautifully unique shape. As you progress, stitches are increased in a captivating pattern, eventually transitioning into elegant 1x1 ribbing. Featuring a built-in slip stitch edge, this design allows you to work with just one color per row, making it the perfect introduction to the world of colorwork knitting. The combination of simple slip stitch patterns with sporty wide ribbing gives this shawl a sophisticated yet casual aesthetic, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe. Plus, the pattern includes a second variation for even more creative possibilities!
