Monthly Sale: Andromeda Shawl

Hey everyone! In the coming months I’m trying to do more promotion of my back catalog patterns. You’ll see some oldies but goodies pop up in the blog, and every month an older pattern will be on sale. If you’d like to be notified of the sale every month you can sign up for the Knitter’s Newsletter.


For the month of August, the sale pattern is the Andromeda Shawl. To get the pattern at 15% off, just purchase it before the end of the month! The discount will be taken off during checkout.

This top-down shawl plays with movement of stitches, having both subtle curving motion and clean decrease lines. The tessellating wave motif shifts and increases like ripples in a pond. The uneven picot edging speaks of waves crashing against the shore. Check out all the great finished versions on Ravelry! My favorite is this one knit by lulabellebird in a gradient yarn!
