Pattern Notes
The shawl is worked sideways from tip
to ribbed edge, and you’ll be working
the garter stitch body at the same time
as the cabled border, making this an
engaging knit all the way through!
Given the quantity of cables in this
shawl, I chose to knit them without a
cable needle. Here’s a tutorial in case
you’d like to do the same:
Denna is an asymmetrical triangular shawl with clean
lines and rich texture. The body of the shawl features https://ysolda.com/blogs/journal/cablin
graphic cables that stand out against a garter stitch g-without-a-cable-needle
background, and it is knit in a cozy DK weight yarn that
will keep you warm all winter long.
