Coastline Shawl

Introducing the Coastline Shawl, a stunning and versatile knitting pattern perfect for those who love asymmetric shaping combined with easy lace and garter stitch techniques. This quick-to-knit shawl is designed to be worked from the bottom up, utilizing short rows similar to many crescent shawls. However, in the Coastline Shawl, the deepest point is strategically positioned off to the side, creating a beautifully sweeping shape that adds elegance to your knitwear collection. Adorned with an intricate lace panel that flows seamlessly from the top edge down to the bottom, this shawl showcases a blend of lace details that not only enhance its aesthetic but also create a delightful visual contrast with the decorative lace edging. The Coastline Shawl beautifully highlights the vibrant colors of hand-dyed sock or sport weight yarn, making it an excellent choice for showcasing your favorite skeins. Fortunately, while the recommended gauge adds to its structure, it is not crucial, allowing you the freedom to use any yarn you desire. **FINISHED MEASUREMENTS:** Length along the top edge AFTER BLOCKING: 52.25 inches (132.5 cm). Depth from the top edge to the bottom edge at its deepest point AFTER BLOCKING: 11.5 inches (29 cm), or approximately 0.5 inches (1.25 cm) longer if you choose to shape the points during blocking, as demonstrated in the sample. **YARN USED TO MAKE THE SHAWL PICTURED:** For this eye-catching shawl, we recommend utilizing Fiesta Baby Boom, a luxurious blend of 90% merino wool and 10% nylon, available in 440 yards (402 meters) per 114 grams with the stunning colorway of Tahiti. Whether you are a novice knitter or an experienced crafter, the Coastline Shawl is a perfect project to add to your collection. Embrace your creativity, explore different yarns, and enjoy crafting this elegant shawl that’s sure to become a staple in your wardrobe.
