Upon A Shore
Introducing "Upon A Shore," a timeless symmetrical triangular shawl pattern designed specifically for knitters looking to create a stunning accessory with a touch of elegance. This shawl is worked top down and features an array of intricate stitch patterns, all meticulously shaped with both centerline and side increases. The knitting journey begins at the center of the top edge, using the popular garter tab cast-on technique. Increases along the centerline incorporate a simple yet beautiful eyelet stitch pattern, which artfully creates a soft and delicate line gracefully connecting two wings of the shawl.
This exquisite sample shawl is crafted using fingering weight yarn in two contrasting colors: a main color (MC) and a contrasting color (CC). While certain sections are delightfully worked in both colors, alternating every two rows to create depth, other sections are dedicated to a single color, either light or dark. This approach adds to the visual interest of the finished piece, making it perfect for various occasions, from casual outings to more formal gatherings.
What sets this pattern apart is that it includes BOTH detailed written instructions (pages 1-10) AND easy-to-follow charted instructions (pages 11-16), catering to the different preferences of knitters.
**FINISHED MEASUREMENTS** (approx., blocked): The shawl is available in three sizes to accommodate various styles and preferences: Small (22 x 56 inches / 56 x 142 cm), Medium (24 x 60 inches / 61 x 153 cm), and Large (28 x 68 inches / 71 x 173 cm). Whether you prefer a snug wrap or a generously sized shawl, there’s an option for every kind of knitter.
