Julia Wilkens’ Ziggy shawl is worked in garter stitch, using short rows to form triangles.
The triangles are lined by fringes of loop stitch that form a zigzag pattern on the garter surface.
This an easy and really fun knit, and the result in Aestiva is gorgeous to wear in warmer seasons!
The fringe is worked by holding two yarns together. Feel free to use yarns from your stash — you only need small amounts.
