The main body of the shawl is stockinette, making it perfect for mindless knitting. The lace border appears more complicated than it is—it has a short repeat and is easily “read”.
Remember the flowers that gave Mario fire power—the old school versions that had jagged tops? Those are mimicked in the elegant lace border. Yup, Mario just got elegant.
