A Different Path
Sometimes the path we take to get where we are going isn’t as straightforward as we expected. Why not embrace it and enjoy traveling that crooked path? This sideways-knit, asymmetrical triangular shawl features crooked lines of eyelets that break up the garter-stitch body. It’s completely reversible. When knitted with a beautiful hand dyed fingering weight yarn, the end result is a light and airy one-skein shawl to help you travel that path in the most stylish of ways.
The sample is knitted with one skein of Malabrigo Mechita in Dried Orange.
One Shawl, Different Ways to Wear It
I love how versatile Travel a Crooked Path is. Wear it loosely over your shoulders to show off the delicate eyelet lace or wrap it around your neck for a cosy, scarf-like look. One shawl, two very different ways to wear it.
