From the Abstraction Collection, Contradiction is a slightly heart-shaped triangle shawl featuring broken ribbing and wavy stripes. It is worked from the top down and is fully reversible, written instructions only.  The design is suitable for sport to worsted weight yarns; just be sure to adjust your yarn requirements accordingly when making substitutions.

Melanie states, "It is a contradiction for me, because I typically don’t prefer the wrong side look of knitted fabric, but I like it on this shawl!"
