Light Waves Shawls Patterns radiate out and reflect back on each other in this collection of top-down shawls. Each one plays with directionality and intersecting lines, using simple techniques to strong effect.

This collection of shawls includes: Infinity Mirror, Projection and Gradience Shawl.

Get all three patterns together for a discount. The price for the collection is $18.00 (that’s a savings of $6.00 off the combined price of the individual patterns).

You may purchase either the eBook or if you put all the patterns in your cart together, you’ll automatically see the price reduced to $18.00 (you don’t need a code).

If you’ve already bought one of the other patterns, whatever you spent on it will be counted towards the price of the set (as long as you’re logged into your ravelry account when you make both purchases).

GRADIENCE SHAWL
Eyelet diagonals set at cross-purposes to the cables and central spine bring a fresh energy to this top-down triangle. Using fingering weight yarn, show off the vibrant hues of gradient colourways or highlight the strong geometry of a solid colour.

The Gradience Shawl is a classic triangular shape knit from the top down, starting with a garter tab using a Turkish Cast On.

This knitting pattern includes both charts and written instructions.

Substitution Notes
A smooth, fingering weight yarn most blends would be suitable.

Get creative with the two balls of gradient yarn. With two balls of the same colourway, alternate every two rows to create wider sections of colour or join the balls end to end to match the same colour in the middle of the project. One ball will be worked from the inside and the other from the outside, with the shawl beginning and ending with the same colour. With two separate colourways, as in the sample shawl, choose balls that share a common colour on the inside or outside of the ball so the join is not noticeable in the colour progression.

Choose two gradient packs of mini-skeins or a solid with one set of mini-skeins. This design is very versatile.
