Shallow waters
Introducing the Shallow Waters Shawl: a stunning two-color shawl designed to be versatile enough for both everyday wear and special occasions. Measuring long enough to wear as a fashionable scarf and just wide enough to wrap comfortably around your shoulders, this shawl is the perfect accessory for any season. The creation begins with an easy-to-follow lace pattern in your chosen main color, allowing you to work seamlessly until reaching its full length. Afterward, you'll enhance your project by picking up stitches along one edge to create a beautiful wide border in a contrasting color. To complete the elegant look, a delicate thin border is added along the opposite edge, ensuring that every detail shines. Both borders feature a polished I-cord bind off for a refined finish, making this shawl as beautiful as it is practical.
Techniques employed in this pattern include knitting, purling, slipping stitches, yarn overs, knitting two stitches together, knitting through the back loop, picking up stitches, and executing an I-cord bind off. This variety of techniques makes the Shallow Waters Shawl an excellent choice for knitters looking to enhance their skills while creating a beautiful finished piece.
When it comes to your knitting gauge, aim for 21 stitches and 29 rows per 4 inches (10 cm) when blocked, using the Feather & Fern pattern knitted flat. This shawl not only adds warmth but also elevates any outfit, making it a must-have in your knitting repertoire. Whether you're a beginner looking for an engaging project or an experienced knitter who appreciates a classic design, the Shallow Waters Shawl is sure to become a favorite.
