Molt. Knit. Scream.

The Summer Scream is an Assigned Color Pooling, asymmetrical shawl with a built in i-cord edge. Worked in stockinette and utilizes Assigned Pooling to create the Cicada Stitch.

The pooling dispersion will vary by size/yarn, so the look of each shawl will be unique.

The Cicada Stitch is an adaptation of Phanessa Fong’s “Little Leaves” stitch (2018).

The texture pattern is reminiscent of cicadas swarming a tree a la the cicada immersion of summer 2024.
