Docklines Shawl is a top-down triangle shawl. It is a relaxing knit with bold graphic impact. Knit in three colors of North Bay Fiber Bay Blend DK (70% alpaca, 30% Targhee-Polypay wool), the fabric is light, drapey, and beautifully soft. Simple stockinette with rows of purl stripes grow from the center spine, creating striking lines that completely transform with your color choices. The shawl is finished with a generous 2x2 ribbed border for structure and polish. Written for three sizes — Small, Medium, and Large — so you can choose your perfect scale.
