Headwaters
Knit on the bias, Headwaters is a fingering weight triangular shawl with an asymmetrical shape, perfect for wrapping around your neck. Varied sections of water-like lace are separated with meditative garter ridges and stripes, then finished off with a picot edge. Designed in Dapper Dye Works Pearl, this luxurious blend of merino, silk, and cashmere results in a beautifully draped piece. It is lightweight, yet adds the warmth you need on those cooler days and nights.

Approx 77” / 195 cm wingspan x 23” / 58 cm at deepest edge

GAUGE:
Note: Gauge for this is not crucial but will affect final size
and approx yardage used.
• 24 sts x 34 rows = 4” / 10 cm in garter stitch on Gauge Needle
NEEDLES:
• Gauge Needle: Size US 5 (3.75 mm) 32” / 81 cm (circ) needle — or size necessary to obtain gauge
• Smaller Needle: Size US 4 (3.5 mm) 32” / 81 cm (circ) needle — or one size smaller than gauge needle / SEE NOTES
TOOLS:
Tapestry needle and removable marker (optional)
NOTES:
• Sample shown used a needle one size smaller than gauge needle for lace panels because those sections are generally knit at a looser gauge than the garter body.
• Shawl is worked sideways on the bias, casting on at one side and and working out to the other side.
• There will be an extra increase at the end of every third RS row. This will form a slight curve at the top of the shawl for extra comfort around the neck.
• When following the pattern both written and charted instructions are provided. When any section is directed you are free to follow either set of instructions.
