Taught by Fancy Tiger
Jaime and Amber from Fancy Tiger Crafts show you how to make one of their most sought-after knitting projects: The Imposter’s Shawl. This triangular shawl got its name because the basket weave stitches and scalloped edging appear to be woven and crocheted – but, in fact, it’s all cleverly knitted. The shawl begins with a single stitch that grows quickly with strategically placed increases. The scalloped edge is added at the end, and then the whole shawl is blocked to perfection.

I would advise anyone who bought written pattern to see video. Written pattern is not the best. I am finishing the border but I had to rewrite and simplify the pattern to my understanding before making shawl. They also might consider suggesting a stretchy bind off. It is a beautiful shawl. Make no mistake about that!

Great demo and explanations...for my library!
Nice you mentioned types of yarn that would work, and resulting ‘look’.

This shawl was so much fun to knit! The pattern is easy to keep track of; you can always see where you are so you're not so liable to make a mistake, and if you do it's easy to correct. I love the idea of using the salad spinner too--in the past I've put my knits in the spin cycle of the washer but the salad spinner is faster and less fuss. I've already bought yarn for my second imposter shawl!
