A striking two color knitted rectangular shawl with a bit of a twist. Knitted sideways with pretty lace borders starting and ending the shawl. The middle Stockinette section with two cabled stripes is flanked by relaxing garter stitches and the twist happens in the middle back portion that sports a half moon longer edge that can be folded in to a collar which makes for many different ways of styling.
