Cast on and knit the entire scarf in the round! With bouncy sock yarn and changing stitch patterns and colors,...

Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Light and airy, bouncy and fluffy, Latitude uses both fingering wool and mohair/silk lace bases for its textured and interesting fabric. Alternating sections of each throughout the shawl gives it a subtle ribbed surface and a linear appearance. The Old Shale stitch pattern makes curves down the spine and along the bottom edge.
Knitting: Cowl
Have fun working this mosaic color work pattern to make an attractive and cozy cowl in either size. Choose two colors with lots of contrast, or go more subtle if that’s more your style. Mosaic knitting makes a double thick fabric, so working with worsted weight yarn results in a chunky weight cowl. In this case, the stitch pattern is identical ...

Then stitches are picked up on one edge of this panel and the shawl body is worked in long pattern rows. There are small cables running along both sides of the shawl and an I-cord bind off to n...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Madeira is a versatile rectangle “Old Shale” pattern shawl with an unexpected twist: the ends are asymmetrical in width and have different versions of the stitch pattern. Most of the body is knit at 15” wide and with a simple 4 row repeat to form the traditional looking Shale. Then increases are gradually worked within the pattern, and it switc...
