Wildflower and Wood is a square shaped shawl that fits perfectly over the shoulders and wraps soundly around the neck for that extra touch of comfort. The shape and color of the shawl reminded me of flower petals and that beautiful contrast at the edge of the woods, where wildflowers and wood meet in perfect harmony. Knitted in squishy Malabrigo Rios, this shawl will be perfect for those chilly inside summer days with air conditioning and will carry you through the fall into cold weather.

Ayo-afterthought yarn over-lift bar running between the two stitches with left needle from front to back and knit the stitch. This is basically like an M1 increase but you are not twisting the stitch to close the hole. I chose this type of yarn over because I like the look of it better and it is worked the same no matter what type of stitch comes before or after!

This shawl begins as a garter tab. A basic knowledge of provisional cast on techniques, garter tab stitch pickup, increases on right and wrong side rows, and basic shawl knitting are helpful. Knitting tutorials for the provisional cast on technique, garter tab stitch pickup and bind off are provided.

So far this pattern has only been knit by me so if you find any errors please don’t hesitate to let me know.:)
