Sophie Shawl The Sophie Shawl is worked back and forth in one piece from tip to tip in garter stitch, with built-in i-cord edges that create a clean and finished look. The shawl begins at one tip and is shaped with increases to the full width, followed by a straight section, before decreases are worked to form the opposite tip. The integrated i-cord edges are worked simultaneously throughout, giving structure and a polished edge without finishing work. A swatch is recommended to ensure the correct gauge and finished measurements. The Sophie Shawl is designed to be worn with a small amount of positive ease and can be styled wrapped once or twice around the neck.
