Knitting Pattern Asymmetrical Triangle Shawl with Lace – Cloudy Day

Cloudy Day is a timeless asymmetrical triangle shawl featuring an elegant lace pattern worked on the right side only. On the wrong side, all stitches are purled, making the pattern easy to follow and pleasantly rhythmic.

The shawl is worked sideways, starting with only a few stitches and gradually increasing through regular increases. Sections of garter stitch provide relaxing knitting and make Cloudy Day a perfect project for cozy evenings on the sofa or knitting while watching TV.

The lace pattern adds texture and sophistication without overwhelming the design. The balance between lace and simple garter stitch creates a harmonious, wearable shawl that suits both everyday outfits and more elegant occasions.
