Shawl Patterns
Penumbra is a crescent shaped shawlette, inspired by the rings of shadows and light surrounding the moon during an eclipse.
Designed to use less than 400 yards of fingering weight yarn, you can knit Penumbra from a single 100 gram skein of sock yarn, a perfect knit for a precious souvenir skein.
The small size is just right to wrap around your neck with a heavy sweater or light jacket on a chilly day.
Pulsar is a two-color semi-circular shawl. Knit in garter stitch it is an accessible shawl pattern for knitters of all skill levels.
The pulsating bands of garter stitch are inspired by the cosmic phenomenon of pulsar stars - rotating neutron stars that emit a pulsating beam of radiation.
Select two high-contrast colors of hand-dyed fingering weight yarn to best showcase the simplicity of the pattern. You will need one full skein of 400 yards in 100 grams of the main color (shown in Swift Bliss Sock Uptown Graffiti, the dark grey speckle) and about 250 yards of the contrast color (shown in Swift Bliss Sock Downtown, the white speckle).
