Hold two strands of yarn together and knit thick garter stitch stripes in this top-down triangular shawl. Short rows are added to one half of the triangle in an eyelet stitch pattern, forming a long asymmetrical shape.

You can also try a version holding two lace weight yarns together for a thinner fabric or two fingering weight yarns together for a thicker fabric.)
