Take a classic triangular shawl shape and send it on a slightly assymetrical path with Ridgemont Shawl. Simple stockinette flows into fields of eyelets before settling into a lace pattern replete with twisted stitches and texture that dips into the rows beneath.

Ridgemont Shawl is knit at a looser gauge and blocks out to a large size that remains lightweight and comfortable when draped artfully around your shoulders and neck.

Gauge is not critical to the finished object, though it will affect the size and amount of yarn needed. Plan accordingly.

Materials needed:
