The ShaShaShawl came about while I was playing around with different shawl shapes. It’s a heart-shaped shawl, or a triangle with wings, which means that when it’s worn, the wings drape nicely over your shoulders, and the shawl stays in place.
My shawl is knit in two contrasting colours of ShaSha – a light fingering weight yarn from Land O Lace. I wanted a contrasting colour to emphasize the border, but of course it could equally well be knit in one colour. The shawl is knit from the top-down, i.e. starting at the neck and working outwards towards the edging. The lace pattern is clean and crisp lines, to allow the yarn and the overall shaping to be the focus of the shawl.
The pattern is available for download here as well as on Ravelry.
