Airbender is a triangular shawl that begins at the tip with a small number of stitches and expands through increases along the left edge in every RS row.
There are 4 sections, a different stitch pattern worked in each section, representing various air conditions and airbender movements.
The work starts with a traveling slip stitch motif for section 1, then transitions to the Estonian Nupps in section 2, continues with holes in Section 3 and finally ends with a wavy border for Section 4.
