Hydrotropism Shawl

**Introducing Hydrotropism: The Perfect Shawl for Spring and Summer!** Hydrotropism is a stunning shawl design that captures the essence of nature and the beauty of spring and summer. Knit with high-quality fingering weight yarn using US size 5 needles, this lovely wrap offers a light and airy feel while providing enough warmth to shield you from the morning and evening chill. The intricate cable pattern featured in Hydrotropism is inspired by the growth of plant roots. It beautifully mimics how roots start as a dense cluster, intertwining with one another, before some venture out alone, delving deeper into the soil. This knitting pattern starts with tightly packed cables that gradually space apart towards the center of the shawl, before returning to a closer arrangement as you finish the piece. This unique design not only creates visual interest but also enhances the overall texture of the shawl. Despite its complex appearance, the cable pattern is surprisingly easy to memorize after just a few repetitions. For your convenience, the pattern is written out row by row, allowing you to focus more on your knitting and less on deciphering charts. **Materials Needed:** - Approximately 1325 yards of fingering weight yarn - US size 5 knitting needles Whether you're looking for a beautiful accessory to complement your spring wardrobe or a cozy wrap for those cool summer evenings, the Hydrotropism shawl is a versatile addition to any knitting collection.
