Pink Thing Shawl

Pink Thing is a pretty triangular shawl worked on the bias, in one piece, from top to bottom. It is an easy and relaxing pattern, with large portions of garter stitch - sometimes with a few stripes - that will even be suitable for beginners. A lace section comes to bring the little girly touch to the project, and gives it all its charm.
