Salt Water
Are you ready to knit the perfect shawl at the beach? No, seriously—bring your needles, because this is the ideal project for sun-soaked days by the ocean.
Introducing the Salt Water Shawl, designed in two distinct shapes: a lovely heart-shaped triangle and a traditional triangle version. This versatile shawl not only showcases your knitting skills, but also keeps you stylish and comfortable, no matter where you are.
Salt Water is a light, cool, drapey shawl specifically crafted for beach knitting and casual summer wear. Its unique texture is cool to the touch, providing protection for your shoulders against the sun's rays while offering just the right amount of warmth for those breezy beach outings. Enjoy long days in the sun without a worry—this shawl has got you covered.
This pattern is designed to accommodate various fibers but shines in linen or other plant-based yarns. Don’t hesitate to experiment; it also looks stunning when knit in wool! The Salt Water Shawl is adaptable and customizable—you can easily make it larger or smaller, adjusting the balance of garter stitch and lace to suit your personal style.
A heartfelt thank you to the amazing Caitlin, her husband Arlin, and woolcamera for gracefully modeling this shawl! They truly bring the project to life with their beachy vibes.
