Notes:
This cowl combines two types of constructions: top-down triangular shawl knit flat and a bias rectangle knit in the round.
The first section, the top-down triangular shawl, is constructed using a series of yarnovers to form
the triangular shape. You will be increasing by 4 sts every RS row.
Once you have reached the proper stitch count, you will join the edges of the shawl in the round and work a series of increases and decreases to create the bias rectangular shape. Because you are working the same amount of increases and decreases, you will not gain or lose stitches.
