Fishermen's Throw Shawl

This is the same pattern I used for the Fishermen's Throw
using the bulky multicolor yarn on big needles.


 I think it is so much nicer using one color so you can see the pattern.
I'm using 4 wt yarn and size 9 knitting needles.

This is 22 inches wide and so far 28 inches long.
Since it is not long enough for a shawl I'm going to knit
the pattern once more and that will make it 56 inches.
That should be long enough for a shawl.
I can always start the pattern again if it is not quite long enough.

EDIT
I decided not to make this a shawl after all.
Didn't like the pattern for a shawl.
I knitted a bit more on it and 
have it as a baby blanket.

  1. Lovely project, the single-color yarn really highlights the stitch pattern, and your plan for lengthening it looks perfect.

  2. The pattern comes out beautifully with one color. I love the fisherman's pattern, and I have a sweater on my knitting needles in blue... which I have to keep knitting :-)))
