Floating Ribs Shawl Knitting Pattern - Infinite Twist

Floating Ribs Shawl Knitting Pattern

Name: Floating Ribs Shawl Knitting Pattern
Brand: Infinite Twist
Price: 5.0 USD
Availability: InStock

This pattern is a triple love letter – first, to the amazing way brioche ribs interlace and float above one another, second, to precious handspun yarn, and third, to my very sweet but horrendously destructive cat. I designed this shawl to use up every possible yard of handspun salvaged from a formerly favorite shawl in which my cat chewed several holes.

Floating Ribs features a faux i-cord edging, a central column of increases, and uses two colors of yarn to create a subtle striped effect. The elongated heart-shape of the shawl keeps it on your shoulders, and it’s a great size for multi-season wear – scrunch it up and wear it as an oversized winter scarf, or wear it around your shoulders as a transitional layer for fall and spring.
