Stitch by Numbers
Enjoy a modular collage of different slip stitch patterns with this bold arched shape. The seamless construction begins in the center with the Painting Bricks motif. Then, stitches are picked up to knit each wing with stripes, triangles, and chevrons. A final border frames the architectural shape with slip stitch squares. Choose a main color and five contrast color pops in fingering weight yarn to create this stunning statement shawl.
Finished Measurements
84′′ / 213cm wingspan length, 19′′ / 48cm wide along the center of the bricks section. Measurements taken after blocking.
