The new Mariela shawl is a very delightful project to cast on~
Knitted from the top down with a garter tab cast on, from where your shawl grows along the sides as well as the middle. Enjoy a moss stitch pattern and a cable stitch done without a cable needle and easy yarn overs along the bottom garter stitch border. Talking about the cable stitch, before the middle eyelets the cables look different than after the eyelet middle. I happen to like variations in my knits. Why not do something a bit different, right? It’s an enjoyable knit~
