Fall Twists - shawl knitting pattern

Fall Twists Shawl is worked sideways and shaped into an elongated triangle. Alternating stripes of squishy rib and cable pattern give the shawl an interesting texture on both sides − the shawl is reversible.
The pattern has instructions for two yarn weights: fingering and DK.
