The Waterside Shawl by Kat Archer will be Twisted’s featured knit pattern contribution to the 2018 Rose City Yarn Crawl, March 1 – 4, 2018. Each shop’s pattern(s) will be available free with purchase at that shop during the Rose City Yarn Crawl. All patterns will also be available starting on March 1 for purchase individually or as part of our 2018 Collection: Waterways: 2018 Rose City Yarn Crawl Pattern Collection. This pattern is also available with yarn as the Waterside Shawl Kit from Twisted.
Like light reflecting on water, the colors of this shawl ripple and fade from one to the next. A perfect canvas for your favorite color palette, choose one that evokes sunrise over a river, mid-day on the coast, or any other waterside locale.
