Sandness

Textured Triangular Shawl
Skill Level: 2 of 5
Regular price $10.00

“This shawl is worked using a modified version of a traditional Shetland construction. In this case stockinette stitch replaces the typical garter stitch used in the center triangle portion of the shawl. As with the traditional method, yarn overs are worked at the beginning of every row creating visual loops, which are then picked up to work the border. Sandness is intended as a bigger cousin companion to my Norby beanie as they share the same textured pattern. Sandness is the town in Shetland in which Norby beach can be found.” − Gudrun Johnston

CONSTRUCTION
