Everyone imagines being able to time travel but since we don’t have a clever blue box, what can we do? We can build our own pan-dimensional surfboard and ride the waves of the time vortex! Don’t have a handy nuclear power plant to fuel your surfboard or the alien tech to build one in the first place? Why not knit your own version. You may not be able to travel in time, but you will look fabulous in the present.

This asymmetric crescent is knit sideways using two contrasting colors in a series of alternating lace and texture patterns connected by slipped stitch stripes. The shawl is finished with a knitted-on edging. You will never get bored with this project. The pattern is suitable for the adventurous knitter to intermediate knitter. Skills required: basic stitches, simple lace, two color stripes, knitted-on edging.

Finished Dimensions
• 57in/145 cm across top edge
• 31 in/ 79 cm drop at longer side

While gauge is not critical with this project, it will affect your yarn usage. I tried to use as much of this beautiful yarn as possible so if you are using the same yarn, you will want to watch your gauge and block your swatch. I don’t recommend increasing more than one needle size. If you cannot match both row and stitch gauge, it is more important to match row gauge.
