Pattern info

The ‘Faded Seafoam’ shawl showcases the transformation of simple knit and purl stitches into a classic and urban design.

It has also a repetitive stitch pattern so advanced knitters seeking a meditative project will love this shawl, too. This design lent itself to maximum playability with colors, speckled yarn, fibers and different yarn weights. A fast but satisfying knit and the beautiful edgings provides polish and refinement to the entire piece.

Faded Seafoam is worked flat from the top down, starting with a garter tab. Stitches are increased every RS row along the edges and along the center to create a shallow triangular shawl. The pattern is fully written out and charted with stitch counts throughout the entire shawl.
