Horizonte

***S***ometimes, when life feels overwhelmingly loud and complicated, and I struggle to find the peace and calmness I crave, I turn to a simple yet invigorating remedy: a walk outside to admire the sky. In northern Germany, I often find myself gazing at a beautiful dusty blue sky punctuated by soft, light gray clouds. The flat landscape here offers my eyes and my mind the simplicity they need to unwind. One of my favorite spots is the serene Baltic Sea shore, where the expansive horizon consistently provides me with a soothing sense of tranquility. This experience inspired me to create “Horizonte” (German for “horizons”), a knitting pattern that embodies the simple, yet profound beauty of the sky, clouds, and horizon. “Horizonte” is designed to evoke relaxation through knitting with its easy garter stitch, complemented by a few delightful twists and turns in its unique construction. Perfect for knitters of all skill levels, this pattern promises an enjoyable, meditative knitting time. The resulting shawl is not only beautiful but also warm and cozy, making it a perfect accessory for those chilly strolls by the sea or simply for wrapping yourself in comfort at home. Wearing this shawl will serve as a gentle reminder that the finest pleasures in life are often the simplest – much like this exquisite knitted piece. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting, the “Horizonte” pattern will allow you to connect with the world around you and cherish life's serene moments. Join me in celebrating the joyful experience of knitting with this lovely pattern!
