THE MERMAID SHAWL

Shawl is inspired by mermaid lore, the alluring sea, and curling waves on the sand. Worked in Worsted Weight yarns {one color for body accented at edge with contrasting color} this shawl carries summer’s memory as colder days approach, beckoning warmer breezes again.

Design is meditative, relaxing and fun to knit with textured sections entitled CALM SEAS, MERMAID TAIL, and SANDBAR.

A swirly Bind Off finishes this whimsical deisgn; the shawl will flow around you like a comforting hug.

I saw a little mermaid once, while playing in the sand, she had some pearls around her hair, a mirror in her hand.
She built a little castle there, ’twas just two inches high, and covered it with pretty shells, That lay around near by.
The waves came creeping slowly in, But still the mermaid played, The seagulls surrounded and whirled about, but she was not afraid.
Then suddenly she turned and swam, Into the deep blue sea,
I wonder why she didn’t stop, To say Good-Bye to me?
