VARIATIONS ON A THEME
*You can of course go on knitting, adding as many triangles as you
like.
*You will have noticed there are two figures highlighted in red in the
pattern. If you wish to make this shawl in a different size (for
instance if you use Worsted, or Double Knitting yarn) these are the
only things in the pattern that need to be changed. Really.
For Worsted weight yarn I recommend Casting on 45 stitches and
staggering by 10 stitches.
For Double Knitting try casting on 60 stitches and staggering by 13
stitches.
You can see examples of both in my projects.
*You could try knitting each triangle in a different colour or yarn. It
would even look good knitted completely randomly in scraps of yarn
(maybe all those left over bits of luxury sock yarn?
