SOUNDSCAPE SHAWL is a generous worsted weight shawl that is perfect for social, TV, or car knitting. Sections of garter stitch are interrupted by dropped yarn overs to make soundwaves travelling across the body of the shawl. This pattern is worked flat, beginning with the small tail, followed by sections of garter and soundwaves, finishing along the widest top edge.
