Rebound is a big statement shawl full of character and substance.
Bold, mesmerizing cables growing from tip to edge, enclosed by deeply ribbed borders, will embrace your shoulders and shield you from the cold. Worked up in DK-weight yarn, Rebound is a versatile accessory and the elongated triangle shape allows for effortless draping. Wear it with a chic dress or your well-worn leather jacket, it will be an eye-catcher and add something special to any outfit.
The Rebound Shawl is worked flat from the right tip to the left edge as an asymmetrical triangle. Although increases are worked on one side only, the cleverly changing increase rates shape the shawl like a curved wing or vortex shawl for easier draping.

This design was a collaboration with Primrose Yarn Co., I used their Roan DK, which is a lovely fiber blend of 60% American Superwash Merino and 40% Domestic Non-Superwash Merino Wool, that is perfect for cable knitting!
