DK Daisy Chain Shawl

DK Daisy Chain Shawl is a reversible design worked in marled garter stitch with two strands of different colour yarns held together. The double-knit motif is worked in stockinette with yarns separated for front and back. The shawl is shaped as a triangle that makes half a square. It is worked from the bottom corner up in two stages. You start with a mitred square, then work two triangular side panels. This pattern is written and charted for three sizes.
