Dragon Wing - shawlette knitting pattern

Dragon Wing is a narrow, semi-triangular shawlette, combining the simplicity of garter stitch with an easy reversible ladder pattern and interesting shaping. The simple design works best with hand-dyed yarns in variegated colourways. The pattern contains both charts and written instructions for 2 sizes, including a one-skein option.
