Knitting Pattern Shawl Drifting Lines

Drifting Lines is a drawn-out, (almost) symmetrical triangle shawl with a beautiful stripe pattern worked in garter stitch. The directionality of the stripes changes multiple times, which gives the simple pattern added interest.

Drifting Lines is the perfect project for on the road or in front of the TV, as it is simple and pleasant to knit. The shawl is worked in one piece, there is no need to pick up any stitches.

The changes in direction are achieved by working short rows. There are also only very few yarn ends to sew in, as they can be carried throughout the work.

The I-cord edge that surrounds the shawl is knit as you go.
