This is a small shawl, more of a triangle scarf. I used one skein of yarn and wound it into 2 balls so that the stripes were finer. I used both balls of yarn alternating every 2 rows and carrying the other yarn up the side.
Yarn: Unisono sock yarn, 1 skein (100% superfine merino with aloe vera and jojoba, 300 meters, 330 yards.) I wound the skein into 2 equal sized balls.
Needles: Size 6 32" circular
YO = yarn over
pm = place marker
sm = slip marker
For stripe pattern alternate yarns every 2 rows, carrying yarn up the side as you work.
Directions:
Cast on 7 stitches.
Row 1: knit
Row 2: purl
Row 3: K2, yo,k1,yo,pm,k1,pm,yo,k1,yo,k2.
Row 4: K2, purl to last 2 stitches, K2

Garter section:

Work these 2 sections to desired length. My shawl measures 16 '" tall by 32" wide.
Try to end with a section of garter stitch. Bind off loosely.
