This listing is for a paper copy of this pattern.

Skill Level: Intermediate

Gauge: 5 sts = 1 inch in stockinette stitch before blocking

The square version of the Zig Zag Fantasy begins with a few stitches in the center and is knit outward to the edging in a square comprising four triangular sections. One quarter (or one triangular edge) of the pattern is fully charted. To complete each round of the shawl, repeat each charted row four times. A lace edging is then applied to the outside edge.

The triangular version of the Zig Zag Fantasy begins with a few stitches at the top of the center back and, again, is knit outward to the edging. One row of the Triangular Shawl is completed by knitting each charted row twice. A lace edging is then applied along the two short sides of the triangle.

The finished size of the square shawl is 56 inches square, and the triangle shawl is 56 inches along the two "short sides" of the triangle.

The Square Zig Zag Shawl requires 5 skeins of our lace weight yarn, the Triangular Zig Zag Shawl requires 3 skeins.
