Product Description
This shawl makes me think of visits to my friend in Asheville, North Carolina: the twisted stitch pattern evoking the mountains and rivers of Appalachia; the shape and style both modern and a bit unexpected; the soft coziness of the fabric just the thing for a cool mountain morning. Asheville Morning is worked from end to end in a slowly widening rib. The cable pattern at the top border can be done with or without a cable needle. The pattern includes instructions for adjusting the length of the shawl, working the 2-stitch cables without a cable needle, and working the m1p increases. To make this shawl, you will need to know how to knit, purl, and slip stitches, and either be comfortable with working 2-stitch cables and increases or be open to trying new techniques with some guidance. Instructions are both written and charted.
