Lost Winds Shawl
Lost Winds Beach is a beautiful spot in San Clemente. Descend the long stairway to the trail, then over the railroad tracks and you find yourself in a little bit of heaven. Our Lost Winds Shawl mimics the gentle waves of sand contrasted with the industrial railroad tracks, the combination is a gorgeous shawl perfect for summer.
The Lost Winds Shawl is knit with two skeins of our Bianca lace weight yarn, one variegated and one semi-solid. The first section is all garter stitch using a single strand of yarn, changing to two strands held double while you make the color changes for the lace section. There are four increases on this shawl, 2 edge and 2 center. The shape this creates helps the shawl to sit perfectly on your shoulders.

Please Note |
Due to the nature of hand dyeing and the technique we use, each skein is unique. We dye in small batches, so there are no dye lots. The color, distribution, and saturation will vary from skein to skein. If working on a multi-skein project we recommend alternating skeins to avoid visual color differences, pooling, etc. Keep in mind the actual colors may differ based on the color settings of your screen as well (ie blue light filters). |
