Designed especially for the Thanksgiving season, my new collection, With the Grain, was inspired by the grassy grains harvested to provide food worldwide. Many civilizations have relied on wheat, rye, and barley for their survival, and these three shawls were created to honor those folks working in fields to bring us these essential food sources.

Barley Water
A traditional triangular shawl worked from the top down. For the minimalist in everyone, lots of garter stitch with a single-stitch spine begins with a garter tab and finishes with a simple lace border; to make any size you wish.

This design is intended to use up your yarn, and is suitable for any yarn weight up to bulky. Please note that the lace border is worked either from charts or the full written instructions.

Materials used for sample (weighs 285g):
Garnstudio Drops Puna:
6 skeins Taupe

Acknowledgements:
The lace border contains elements from a stitch pattern found in the Knitting Stitch Bible by Hitomi Shida.
