Tinker’s Shadow
Choose three colors of Amanda Hope Yarn Merino Linen and create a sweet summer wrap! Perfect for throwing over bare shoulders in chilly air-conditioned spaces, this traditionally shaped triangle shawl will be your go-to warm-weather accessory.
Knit flat from the top down, this generously-sized piece features integrated garter stitch trims. The asymmetrically textured body is followed by contrast colored pattern stripes and is finished with a clever (and easy!) faux i-cord bind off.
Requiring only simple increases, knits, and purls, and with fully written-out directions, this pattern is suitable for beginning knitters. Meeting gauge is not critical for success, but differences in gauge will change the yarn requirements and final dimensions.
