The Tideline shawl looks like a straightforward design worked in broken rib — but when you take a closer look, you see how the decreases and increases give it a fun, wavy look.

CONSTRUCTION
The scarf, worked in broken rib, starts with a narrow end, is increased to its full width with alternating asymmetric increases and then decreased back into a narrow point with matching decreases. Both the width and the length are easily adjustable to make a smaller accessory scarf or a large wrap. If you use a precision scale, you can maximize the use of your yarn with the tips in the pattern.
