*This pattern was originally published in *52 Weeks of Shawls* by Laine Publishing.*
*Silta* is a symmetrical triangular shawl worked from top to bottom. The shawl initially shifts through a variety of texture sections within a single yarn color. It allows you to appreciate each different stitch pattern while still maintaining a cohesive feel. *Silta* was inspired by the architectural lines of an old bridge – hence the name, which is Finnish for “bridge”.
