This cute triangular shawl is the perfect knitting project for beginners! Using simple garter stitch along with basic increases and decreases, you’ll easily shape the shawl as you go. The variegated yarn creates beautiful stripes, so you don’t need to worry about weaving in multiple ends. For this project, you’ll need 2 balls of variegated yarn, circular needles (5mm/US 8, at least 24 inches long), a darning needle, a tassel maker, and scissors. The shawl is knitted back and forth on the circular needles, continuing until you reach your desired size. The finished shawl measures approximately 75 inches along the long edge. If you prefer, you can skip the tassels and make the shawl with just one ball of yarn!
