‘On the Edge’ - a collection of 4 triangular shawls all named after mountain peaks with breathtaking cliffs: The Sentinell, High Bluff, Mitre Peak and Nanga.
All shawls share the same easy construction, they are worked on the bias from the right tip and start with one stitch cast on. Mitre Peak is made out of lace weight yarn held double. Knit in textured pattern based on garter stitch and brioche stitch and framed with wide garter stitch borders. The use of finer needle provides greater density and warmth.
Thanks to the bias construction it has fabulous drape.
Its size can be changed easily. Instructions are written only.
This pattern is suited for a variety of yarn weights.
Perfect for knitters with little experience who would like to try different
type of stitches besides knits and purls
