Sagitta is an asymmetric shawl with alternating lace and garter stitch panels designed to showcase the beauty of gradient set of mini-skeins against a single skein of a contrasting color. The cables in the garter stitch sections flow out of the lace pattern and are created with traveling slipped stitches worked over a striped backdrop.

The shawl is worked from side to side, increases along one edge and decreases along the other create the asymmetric triangular shape.

Only one color is worked at a time, the cable pattern is created by slipping the contrasting color stitches over the main color rows.
