Memento Mori Shawl

This triangle shawl is worked bottom up, revealing skulls along the outer edges. The detail of the skulls shows best in a solid or tonal yarn. Add fringe or tassels for a little something extra. Directions are given for a DK weight yarn, but this pattern is easily adjustable to make in any weight, larger or smaller. Have fun with it and make it your own!
