Logan Shawl

Not long ago, I was thrilled to collaborate with the wonderful team at The Yarn Collective, who invited me to create a beautiful piece using one of their exquisite yarns. To my delight, I learned that one of the curated yarns was expertly chosen by my dear friend Melanie Berg. A few days later, a delightful box filled with a stunning array of neutrals and grays arrived at my doorstep. After some thoughtful selection, I chose three colors and embraced my favorite pastime—designing a shawl. The Portland Lace yarn is simply beautiful and incredibly soft, resulting in a finished fabric that drapes elegantly and showcases intricate stitch patterns remarkably well. You might wonder, "Why name it Logan?" The inspiration came while I was binge-watching “Gilmore Girls” and knitting in Garter stitch! I must confess, though, I'm still torn between Team Jess and Team Logan ;)

This simple yet stylish shawl is not only enjoyable to knit, but it also features an engaging and rhythmic design that makes it a pleasure to wear. The majority of the body is worked in striking striped Garter stitch, delightfully interrupted by faux rib stripes that add visual interest. Additionally, one section incorporates a touch of simple lace, which not only engages the mind while knitting but also draws the eye with its delicate beauty. Perfect for knitters of all skill levels who are looking to enhance their shawl collection, this pattern is sure to elevate your wardrobe! Whether you’re new to shawl knitting or a seasoned pro, this captivating project merges functionality with artistry, making it an essential addition to your knitting repertoire.
