Ganz is a slightly asymmetrical triangular shawl that begins with a cable and gansey panel. Stitches are picked up on the long side of the panel to work the stockinette stitch body. Easy two over two cables can be worked without a cable needle. Once the panel is done, the rest of the shawl is fairly mindless knitting.

Ganz is not for a rank beginner, but if you are comfortable with following a chart, knitting, purling, cabling and picking up stitches along a slipped stitch edge, this will be easy for you. Please note that a solid colored yarn will show the gansey panel to its best advantage.
