Knitters, you rock. Thank you.

This top-down, center-out triangular shawl was inspired by the Alpaca Baby Blanket by Marie Grace, as well as the subtly-textured simplicity of Jared Flood’s Romney Kerchief.

Instructions are provided both charted and line-by-line.

It is suggested to use a sport-weight yarn on size 9 US needles for a light, airy fabric, but it may also be worked in lace or fingering weight yarn on smaller needles, or conversely, sized up with heavier yarn. The only limit is your yardage! Please plan ahead accordingly.
