Summer Song shawl
It’s summer time! Wrap yourself up in this beautiful Summer Song shawl.
This asymmetrical triangle shawl is perfect for wrapping around your shoulders on a summer evening. You can never have too many beautiful shawls like this in your closet. The shawl pattern is very simple, easy to memorize. Like a song!
Bouncy Merino yarn by Martin’s Lab is the perfect choice to use for this shawl pattern.
The shawl is constructed sideways from tip to tip. You can use one color or two. Edge increases are worked as yarn-overs — immediately after the first 2 stitches, and before the last 2 stitches of the row. The first and last stitches of every row are worked in garter stitch (knit on both RS and WS rows).
