Bossa Nova is a triangle shawl featuring a harmonic stripe rhythm in four colors using a simple slipped stitch colorwork technique that’s easy to memorize and follow.  The slip sequence is constant throughout, but the stripe width follows a rotating pattern that gives balanced movement to the piece.
