Christmas Jingle Shawl

Hello my fellow knitters! as promised in my previous post, this shawl design is my second contribution for this year's Christmas season. I bring you another asymmetrical triangle shawl with wavy stripes, knitted with the beautiful colors of Christmas. Like most of my other shawl patterns, the size for this one is adjustable; you can repeat the general pattern as many times as you like until you reach the size you prefer.

    1. Hi there,
      Here is a link to the original video that shows how to knit the pattern I used to make this shawl: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0daav030Mus
      Just a heads up that the video is in Turkish, but it shows the method step by step, so you can follow it visually and you'll hopefully be able to adapt it into a knitted blanket.
