Ready to cast off

This is Stephen West’s Welted Incline Shawl.

Gather three contrasting colors of fingering weight yarn to knit this beautiful textured shawl. The architectural shape begins with garter stitch short rows and color pop welts. Then, stitches are picked up to form additional short row wedges that expand the wingspan length of the shawl. Tiny bobbles decorate the angular lines with playful texture. A final slip stitch border is added at the end of the project, framed with crisp I-cord edges. Enjoy all the textured accents of this three-color shawl as you learn fun new techniques

This pattern was originally published as part of the Westknits Yarn A Long 2024.

You can purchase the pattern on Ravelry.

I’m caught up on my Temperature Blanket. I think I’m going to be stuck in the blue/green for another few weeks when I look at the long range forecast. 

We’re watching football and golf (with a hockey game starting soon) and I have been knitting. When I’m finished my post I will be casting off the first sleeve of Framed.
