Honky Tonk is a fun-to-knit asymmetrical triangular mosaic shawl. It begins with just a few stitches and increases with easy “knit front and back” stitches on one side edge to create a beautiful and useful silhouette. Most of the shawl is simple garter stitch stripes with a unique zig-zag pattern worked with classic mosaic (slip stitch) knitting using just one color per row. It's color knitting the easy way!
