Description
Are you looking for an easy pattern that is not boring to knit your first shawl? Or are you an experienced knitter and need a quick gift?
Then this is the shawl for you!
Triangle shawls have a very straightforward construction, which is easy to memorize. The combination of stockinette and garter stitches give Simplicity is Key a nice texture, and you can get creative with your colour choices. I opted for something more subtle this time, but
just imagine how it would look in black or dark grey, with a very bright contrast colour. Or, what about using three colours? There are many possibilities to make your shawl unique, without having to worry about a complicated pattern.
