This is the seventh pattern from the greenhouse knits e-book.
# 7 is a large triangular shawl. It is worked sideways and starts with an I-cord 4 stitches wide.
The body is worked in garter stitch with delicate lacey leaves shaping the bottom edges.
The scalloped edge is formed by leaf tips that stick out. They are worked using German short rows aka double stitches.
The lace and the garter stitch body make it an easy project, but it needs your attention because of the increases and decreases that shape the shawl and the leaves.
