Herbivore by Stephen West - Knitting Pattern

$6.50

Herbivore is named after the plant-like structures within the fabric. Yarn over increases stem from the center top of the shawl toward the garter stitch border. Twisted rib sections explode from the edge to create the unique geometric shape. The recommended two skeins of yarn will make a lovely medium size, but you can easily continue to repeat the stitch pattern for a larger shawl.
