Floe

The shawl is knit on the bias, in two different yarn weights, patterns and needle sizes.

The textured stitch patterns ‒ Flight of the Bumblebee for the ice floe texture and Cartridge Belt Ribbing for the flowing water texture ‒ create a fully reversible shawl.

A double-knit border creates neat edges around the shawl.
