Zooming
The 2020 Whackalong theme was ease and personalisation so the design was not a mystery to allow us to plan how we might like to use the pattern to express our own unique creativity.
Zooming is a Worsted weight (10 ply) shawl inspired by the desire to have a relaxing project while connecting with crafty friends over Zoom. It is simple to knit while carrying on a conversation and with frequent section changes, you will find yourself relaxed and literally zooming through it (see what I did there :)). A little texture, some simple lace, endless colour options, and easy-to-customise sizing- this shawl is also an excellent way to bust your yarn stash.
The pattern contains full written instructions and chart. A tick-sheet is also provided, which includes pattern and colour placement, stitch counts, and lace row instructions. Once the set-up section is completed, the entire shawl can be worked from the one page tick-sheet for easy reference if you want to, making this the perfect social project.
This pattern also includes a copy of the sister pattern Zooming Light.
