DESIGN

Filipa Carneiro

This triangular shawlette is knitted bottom-up, starting at the lower tip. You’ll cast on at the shawlette’s bottom point, then increase at both selvages as the piece grows outward in ever-lengthening rows. The increases are knitted as small flowers along the edge. Finally, the shawlette is bound off with a flower stitch.
