This shawl takes the Argosy pattern in a different direction.  It is triangular in shape and has a long straight edge at the top/neck edge.  It is not a bias knit as most of the other Argosies have been.  It’s worked in yarn that is appropriate for spring/summer wraps and could even be used as a beach wrap at the waist.  Once the piece is blocked, most of the curling at the edges seems to disappear.  I like to use decorative hair picks or fancy chopsticks to keep the shawl closed.  If you don't want to read out the instructions line-by-line, I've written up an short version.  This is good for those who knit intuitively and can "read" their knitted item as they go.  Click on the photos below to see the close-up view.

This version of the Argosy dishcloth omits those pesky cast-on/bind-off zigzag edges of the original.  It is a great way to learn the grid sequencing and can be worked up as a practice piece before going on to the other designs in the Argosy Recharged series.  There are only 8 rows that are repeated and they can be easily memorized.  This is a smallish size when finished so to make a larger one, just cast on more stitches in multiples of 8.  I think it would look great in a solid color also.
