This is a simple easy piece to whip up and you can make it even larger if you keep working in pattern. I wanted a triangle shaped shawl that gave me a festive vibe for Valentine’s Day so I used a magenta colored yarn with a simple trim using white . You don’ t have to limit using this only as a shawl , you can also use it as a table runner or chair cover as well ! It can be a versatile piece.
