Spring Tide is the official shawl for the 2018 Knit North Yarn Crawl held March 15th - 18th, 2018. More details on the official website: knitnorthyarncrawl.com

Spring Tide, a beginner friendly shawl, is worked top down in two alternating colors and uses easy slip stitches to create interesting color effects. You only use one color per row, but still get to play with 2 colors for a fun and easy knit, with dramatic effect.

The classic triangular shape has been a bit updated, making Spring Tide more wide than deep and therefore easier to wear (and it stays on!)
