TripCheck
is
a reversible triangle
shawlette
with an increase worked near
the left
edge.
The shawlette
is created by working sets of
“yo, k3tog,
yo”
eyelet and
rows of garter stitch.
TripCheck might
be considered an advance beginner pattern because knowledge of stitch
and shawl construction are helpful. With
an enjoyable eyelet pattern and
a few rows of garter stitch,
the shawlette can
be completed
in a few evenings, weekends,
or while
riding along as the
passenger, making the
TripCheck Shawlette
the perfect
gift or accessory.

| I had enough remaining yarn to work 5 repeats of the third eyelet and an elastic bind-off. In my enthusiasm, I forgot to take a photo before blocking. I blocked the TripCheck Shawlette using mats, wires and pins. |
