This is an easy garter stitch shawl, knit back and forth on a circular needle. Knit it with an interesting wool and the results will be fabulous. Because the garter stitch is stretchy this shawl can be worn as a working shawl, crossed at the chest and tied at the small of the back, freeing your arms to get things done.

The shawl starts at the right hand point, knitting back & forth to the centre back of neck, work around the mitred corner to make the bottom point and then work out to the left point.

The width of the shawl along the neck edge from the right point to the centre back of neck is approximately the same length as the measurement from the centre back of neck down to the bottom point of the shawl.
