The Two if by Sea Shawlette is a play on 2 contrasting colors with a simple, asymmetrical, triangular design. It is worked sideways on the bias, beginning with a lace border on one side, progressing to a striped garter stitch section, then to a solid stockinette section, and finally to a 2 by 2 ribbed section. The bias and shape are achieved with short rows, using a wrap and turn on one side, and a yarn over eyelet border on the other side. I used about 600 yards total of Madelinetosh’s Pashmina yarn in sport weight; 300 yards in the Aura shade, and 300 in the Winter Wheat. Once blocked, my shawlette measured about 6 feet on its longest side and 32 ½ inches at its deepest point. Written directions are included for the whole pattern, and a chart is provided for the lace section.
