The Plum Line Shawl is crescent-shaped and is worked from the top down. It begins with a 2-color welting stitch, progresses to a simple 2-color block slip stitch, and ends with a brioche edging. It is worked in 2 coordinating/contrasting colors of yarn. The brioche border is added on at the end and forms into natural scallops. You will need about 400 yards of fingering weight yarn in 2 colors for a total of about 800 yards to make this shawl. Although I used fingering weight to knit this in, anything from fingering weight through DK would work. Adjust your needle size accordingly and expect a larger shawl than mine made up to be if you choose a heavier weight than fingering. My finished and blocked shawl ended up being 6 feet long and 19 inches deep at the center, deepest point. Written instructions, video help links, and stitch counts are included in the pattern.
