Haven shawl
Haven shawl
The Haven shawl has a triangular shape, and is worked from the tip to the ribbed edge. One side of the shawl features an easy, geometric lace pattern, while the other side is knitted in a comforting and meditative garter stitch, which makes the shawl squishy and warm.
The size of the shawl is easily modified. Just keep adding more rows for a bigger version. You can also finish the shawl by adding tassels to the corners.

Yarn
Note: The shawl uses a strand of fingering weight yarn held together with a strand of lace weight yarn, but they can be substituted for a single strand of DK weight yarn. If you wish to work a DK weight version, omit all the instructions where it says “hold the yarns together” and follow only the yarn amount requirements for the fingering weight yarn.
