1. Work Set-up Rows as for scarf.

2. Work Increase Rows until piece is desired width. (Measure width along right-hand side of triangle, with even-numbered side facing.) Work Increase Rows 1-6 once more before proceeding to Straight Rows.

3. Work Straight Rows until piece is desired length. (Measure length along left-hand side of piece, with even-numbered side facing.)

4. Work Decrease Rows as necessary until 23 sts rem. Work Decrease Rows 1-10 once more. Work Final Rows.
