How to Knit an Easy Shawl for Beginners | Step by Step Video Tutorial
A triangle shawl is a great project for beginner knitters. This shawl in particular is designed to be very straight forward and easy for those just starting to knit. All you need to know how to do is cast on, knit, and increase a stitch using the backwards loops method. Never done this before? Have no fear — I created a step by step video tutorial that walks you through exactly how to make this fabulous triangle shawl.
