Shallow Tide

Isn’t it a lovely, refreshing feeling to roll up your jeans and take a paddle through gently rolling waters on a warm, sunny day? It's that same delightful sensation of creativity and warmth you experience when you skein up your yarn and cast on a fresh new knitting project!

Introducing the Shallow Tide shawl – an inviting one-skein, asymmetric shawl that masterfully utilizes textured patterns to create beautiful ruched waves. By combining stripes of classic stockinette and reverse stockinette, this shawl enhances visual interest while remaining straightforward to knit. The strategically placed yarnover increases and clever decreases create a dynamic interplay, pulling the stitches in captivating directions for an added splash of artistry to the design.

The result is a timeless and simple shawl that looks stunning in a highly variegated yarn, making each project uniquely yours, or equally as lovely in a solid color for a more classic aesthetic. When you reach the end of this knitting journey and are ready to bind off your shawl, a charming picot bind-off adds the perfect finishing touch, creating a lovely ripple effect. For your convenience, a video tutorial is linked on page 4 to guide you through this elegant bind-off technique.

The Shallow Tide shawl pattern is an excellent choice for adventurous beginners looking to expand their skills, while more experienced knitters will appreciate the soothing yet engaging rhythm of this project. Dive into the world of knitting and let your creativity flow with the Shallow Tide shawl, a project that promises to be as enjoyable to create as it is beautiful to wear!
