Poppy Knit Triangle Shawl
Learn how to knit a triangular shawl with no lace for the colder months!
It's easy to knit up a pop of color for your wardrobe! The Poppy Knit Triangle Shawl is a super easy way to do it. Since this shawl is knit on the bias, it doesn't have any of those pesky lacy openings down the middle. This makes it a great neck warmer for the winter, as well as a great way to layer up in the spring time. We love this quick knit shawl for first-time shawl knitters, since you get to create a fantastic, uniquely wearable piece with minimal effort due to the self-striping nature of the yarn.

There is no way to keep the marker in place before the last 6 stitches, there are increases and decreases occurring every row, that just will not allow the marker to stay in place. Best bet is to drop the marker after that instruction, it's unnecessary at that point.
