It’s indeed a purled spiral links stitch pattern, I called “Chiocciola” because of its shape, that features this extended wings triangle shawl. **Construction notes** Involving just few basic techniques to be considered suitable even for an adventurous beginner, the stitch pattern develops on a multiple of three stitches and repeats itself every six rows therefore very easy to memorize. The shawl is worked from the top down starting form an I-cord tab with provisional cast on. The 3 stitches I-cord runs along the top edge while the bind off is realized using a decorative simplified version of the stitch pattern. The shawl is easily adjustable in measures and perfectly reversible. The yarn I used to realise it is very elastic and soft, two qualities that perfectly complement the shawl's decorative pattern and shape, contributing to its overall success. **Finished measurements** Approximately 120 cm/ 48" wingspan lenght and 30 cm/12" depth, blocked. **Yarn** 1 skein of Urth Yarns “Harvest Fingering” (100% Extrafine Superwash Merino, 400 m/435 yds per 100 g/3,53 oz ball) Shown in color Grape Leaf *If made with other different yarn yardage, dimensions and drape might change.* **Needles** 3,5 mm/US 4 80 cm/32” circular needles Always use a needle size that will result in the correct gauge, blocked. **Other notions** Tapestry needle, measure tape, scissors, blocking aids. **Gauge** Measured after blocking.
