A fresh sea breeze blows our way with the EBBE & FLUT triangular shawl, reflecting the sky, beach, and sea! The TRIANGULAR SHAWL is knitted in alternating pattern sections in 3 colors – it starts in garter stitch and transitions through a “bobble field” into a gentle wavy lace pattern. First you work from row-by-row instructions, then the wave pattern from a knitting chart/chart.
Measurements: ~ 160 cm x ~ 68 cm (customizable!)
Difficulty level: Intermediate, for ambitious, more experienced beginners and advanced knitters
You should know how to do these: knit and purl sts, knit sts through the back loop, yarn overs, knit sts together, slipped-stitch decreases, bobbles (they are very easy and explained in detail), working from a knitting chart
