Rose Dreams Entrelac Shawl
"The shawl is a great option for colder autumn mornings and evenings when in a need of warm yet elegant accessory. Long transitions of reds and pinks bring back memories of gardens in full bloom during spring and summer days. The Shawl is worked flat, RS facing from right to left. The pattern is worked in sections formed of squares and triangles (only on edges of every other row to create straight edges). Yarn is bound off after each row (of squares), then re-attached at the beginning of the consecutive row (of squares). "
