BROOKLYNNE

crochet shawl

Geometry and spatial math are often my underlying design inspirations. For this beautiful shawl, I thought the contrast of pulling out a stitch pattern from the motif to create bands of lace between rows would be a fun mathematical challenge. To further up the ante, I applied this concept to a triangular shawl and used both for increasing within bands and joining the motifs. The graphic contrast of the two components is striking yet still subtle since the V-stitches are used throughout.
This is a generously sized shawl and can be styled in a number of ways. Featuring the motifs along the lower edge adds to the romantic drama.
