Description

There is a 2 stitch garter border along the top edge of the shawl & regular increases that help shape the shawl.

Each RS row begins with K2, YO & ends with YO, K2. Each WS row beings with K2, YO. Every other WS row ends with K2, YO. It is important to maintain the alternate row increases on the WS edges even while working the short rows.
