Garden Lattice Shawl Pattern

This playful triangle scarf has been in progress for a few months.  I was inspired to make the main body of the scarf a while ago, and then set the scarf aside to think through what to do about edging the design in a way that would not detract form the simplicity of the scarf.  I don't currently own any fringy triangle scarves, and think this might be a fun addition to my growing scarf collection.

Materials

• sizes G and E crochet hooks
• size 1 yarn - superfine, between 400 and 460 yards (I used under 2 skeins of Deborah Norville Serenity Sockweight in soft white.)
