Gull

Introducing the ultimate summer shawl: a stunning, wedge-shaped design that beautifully combines luxurious garter stitch texture with eye-catching linework. This shawl not only offers an elegant drape but also features a delicate, frothy openwork pattern that allows light to dance through its stitches. Crafted using addictive short-row repeats, this knitting project is inspired by the serene image of waves gently lapping at sandy shores, making it a soothing and meditative experience perfect for your next vacation or summer getaway.

Whether you opt for a solid or natural heathered yarn paired with a captivating gradient colorway, you'll achieve a breathtaking effect reminiscent of the sample photography shown here. For an added twist, consider mixing a variegated yarn with a solid color to create your unique overall pattern. The design is not only versatile but also allows your creativity to shine through with color choices that fit your personal style.

Do keep in mind that substituting yarn types and needle sizes may lead to variations in the shawl's final size, drape, and required yardage, so choose wisely for your desired outcome. The shawl featured in our gallery is beautifully knit with Bare Naked Wools Jacob Fingering yarn in the elegant color medium gray, and Apple Tree Knits Plush Fingering in the delightful hand-dyed color Perfect Picnic Sky, exclusively created for the 2018 Pairings Club.

Perfect for both novice and experienced knitters, this shawl pattern promises to be a favorite project for those warm summer days or breezy evenings. Grab your needles, pick your yarn, and embark on this delightful knitting journey that combines ease, elegance, and summertime charm!
