Stanwood Shawl
Introducing the Stanwood Shawlette: the perfect accessory that combines practicality and flair! This stylish piece is more versatile than a traditional shawl and more playful than a typical scarf. Whether you're heading out for a brisk autumn morning walk or simply want to add a cozy layer to your outfit, the Stanwood Shawlette is your go-to item. With its unique garter squish texture and gently curved design, this shawlette is ideal for draping over your shoulders.
Designed as a long, slightly curved shawlette, the Stanwood is expertly worked flat from the long edge, allowing for easy handling while knitting. The beauty of this piece lies in its construction: it's crafted completely in Garter Stitch, which adds a wonderful squishy texture that feels luxurious against your skin. To elevate its charm, contrasting stripes run along the outer curve, providing an eye-catching visual that sets it apart from simpler shawls. Additionally, Garter Stitch points along the outer edge are skillfully created using short rows, adding depth and interest to the overall design.
