This cosy shawl alternates varying textures for a fun experience. Going from twisted stitches to bicolour moss stitch, from bobbles to a garter tweed motif, it is a sampler of textures and colours.
It is an asymmetrical triangle worked sideways. Starting with a small tip and featuring garter edgings on both sides, it increases on one edge, one stitch every right side row, until the end. The four different motifs are worked twice, and the shawl ends with some garter stripes to match the edgings.
