Montage Shawl
Coming soon.
Update: A new version with updated charts and information will be available directly from my website.
——
This shawl is the interplay of light and dark, garter and stockinette, resulting in the formation of a delicate network of rigid lines. As the garment grows, a sophisticated and architectural sequence emerges, evoking a sense of luxury and high-end fashion.
Montage is constructed bottom up, has an asymmetrical triangular shape by increasing along the left edge, and includes a 3-stitch i-cord border.
