To use this Ana shawl pattern, first gather your US 3/3.25 mm circular needles and tapestry needle. Start knitting following the simple increase and decrease instructions to form the triangular shape. You can use a Koigu paint - can yarn or 435 yards of your favorite Koigu KPPPM. When you're done knitting, use the tapestry needle to finish off the edges. As for care, since it's made of 100% Merino Wool, it's best to hand - wash it in cool water with a gentle wool detergent. Lay it flat to dry to keep its shape. Avoid wringing or twisting the shawl as it could damage the fibers.
