…………………………………………………………….
Knit in fingering weight yarn, the Falling Water Shawl features an elegant, easy lace stitch and lots of soothing garter stitch. It was inspired by the lace motif of my Falling Water Scarf (my very first pattern!), which I’ve adapted to work within the shape of an asymmetrical shawl.
The piece begins with a cast-on of just three stitches and gradually grows longer, with a column of lace flowing up the right side and garter stitch on the left. Yarn overs worked on the left side create the shawl’s triangular shape. It ends with a simple knit-purl section that can be worked over any number of stitches — which means you can make the shawl as long (or short) as you’d like.
The shawl is knit flat, but a circular needle is used to accommodate the large number of stitches.
Stitch patterns are provided in charts and also are written out, line by line.
The Falling Water Shawl and Falling Water Scarf are available individually and as an ebook set.
