Pattern is also available on Ravelry: Kidding Around Bandana & Shawlette by Cassie Munksgard for The Lamb & Kid

PATTERN NOTES

This shawlette and bandana are worked from the top down with additional increases on the wrong side edges to achieve a more shallow triangle shawl. Increases will happen on every edge right and wrong side, but only on the right side at the center spine.

Stitch counts are imperative to maintain the ribbed stitch pattern. A hot tip, while knitting the ribbing section, you will ALWAYS start with a k1 on the wrong side of the pattern after the increase stich. The center spine is the only place on the wrong side that the pattern changes. This may help you catch on to the rhythm of the pattern a little quicker.
