Set Adrift Shawl - Digital Knitting Pattern
I created a lot of mood boards for this collection. In fact, I created one for each pattern. When I started gathering photos for this shawl, I was interested in playing with the similarities and differences between bed sheets and boat sails. Both are fabric with stitched seams, but one takes you places and the other tucks you in. Whether you are adrift at sea or drifting off for the night, this shawl is a great addition to any collection.
The side to side shape of this triangular shawl eliminates the need for the long rows you usually have to knit in shawls. The slipped stitch pattern is added as you knit and the ends are left long to create a unique fringe in the finishing (less ends to weave in!). For another layer of texture, the fringe can be finished with beads of your choice to make this distinctly yours in style.
