Craon

Craon is a triangular shawl. It uses garter stitch on the sides, and a center pattern of slipped stitches on a base of stockinette stitch. The shawl is knitted along the smaller side, so rows are never too long, the largest row is 130 stitches wide. The shawl is divided in two broad parts, the increase sections, up to the end of section two, and the decrease sections. The increase section accounts for a third of the shawl, knitwise and yard-wise.
