Shawl "Fjord Diver", knitting pattern

FJORD DIVER - a knitting pattern by fil-art-aue

Diving into the deep blue. Silence. A longing that takes me on a journey through dark fjords, deep waters and shimmering, rippling water surfaces. This was the inspiration for the scarf FJORD DIVER.

2 colors and alternating pattern sections of Garter Stitch and Slip Stitches form the basic structure for this shawl. Despite the patterning with 2 colors, you only have to knit with one color per row – so just knit and relax!

Pattern is easy to knit. Skills: knit, purl, slip stitches, increases

You get a knitting pattern (PDF) with detailed instructions, 11 pages in English, including a material list, alternative yarns, charts as well as written descriptions for all patterns, tips, helping links and photos.
