Walk the Line

The pattern of this shawl captivates with its geometric, clear lines.

This classic triangular cloth is knitted with garter stitches only. The effective pattern is created by lift stitches alternating with rows in garter stitch.

With using two different colours - one is the main colour, the other the contrasting colour - there are no limits to your creativity. You can choose colours tone on tone or strong contrasts, whatever you prefer. The result is an absolutely wonderful eyecatching shawl.
