Shawl top

This is an effort to modify a top down triangle shawl to remove the tab start and the first few rows. The original design is bulky a the base of the neck.
Cast on, work 1 row, then work a pair of short rows to round off the corners at the angle change, then start the shawl pattern. Lace cast on
