**Pattern #7 from the Mythos Collection: Wandering Waves Shawl**

Introducing the **Wandering Waves Shawl**, a breathtaking design inspired by the mysterious and dynamic watery domain of Poseidon, the legendary **God of the Sea**. While he is widely recognized for his dominion over oceans and water, Poseidon also held the lesser-known title of the **“Earth Shaker,”** reflecting his ability to cause powerful earthquakes. As one of the revered **12 Olympians** in Greek mythology, Poseidon is the brother to notable deities such as **Zeus**, **Hera**, **Hestia**, **Demeter**, and **Hades**. This rich mythological backdrop adds layers of meaning to the Wandering Waves Shawl, making it not just a beautiful accessory, but also a piece steeped in history and lore.

The Wandering Waves Shawl is a unique sideways-knit wrap that elegantly drapes across the shoulders. Crafted on the bias from one long side edge to the tip of the wingspan at the opposite edge, this pattern diverges from traditional shawl shapes. Unlike the commonly seen equilateral or isosceles triangles typically found in shawl designs, the **Wandering Waves Shawl** forms a right-angle **scalene triangle**. For those who may need a refresher on geometry, this means that one corner forms a perfect **90-degree angle**, while the sides are of unequal lengths, defining it as scalene. The innovative construction and asymmetrical shape not only enhance the visual appeal but also provide a stunning drape and comfortable fit.

Perfect for both beginner and experienced knitters, the **Wandering Waves Shawl** pattern combines captivating design with a challenge that will delight any skill level. As you immerse yourself in the rhythmic stitches and flowing lines of this unique shawl, you'll find that each row mimics the gentle ebb and flow of ocean waves, transporting you to a serene coastal landscape. Whether you're looking for a cozy wrap to wear during chilly evenings or a striking statement piece to complement your outfit, the Wandering Waves Shawl is sure to become a cherished addition to your knitting repertoire.

Download the **Wandering Waves Shawl** pattern today and embrace the allure of the sea with your own handmade creation, stylishly reflecting the majesty of Poseidon’s domain.
