Songbird Shawl

**SONGBIRD SHAWL** It’s human to get a little bit lost sometimes. Songbird was inspired by the feeling of realizing when you've gotten off track and by how difficult it can be to find the way back to your true self. The path back isn’t always smooth. Sections of garter and stockinette make for easy knitting, while the two textured stitches add a touch of challenge. The result is symbolic of how every rocky step on your journey creates beauty in the end. May you embrace every opportunity to grow, and have the freedom & bravery to accept the path back to your true self. *Use hashtag #songbirdshawl to share your projects on social media.* For all questions & pattern support please email askveryshannon@gmail.com ***** **FINISHED MEASUREMENTS** 85 in / 216 cm wingspan and 18 in / 46 cm depth measured as per Schematic (included in pattern) after blocking. **GAUGE** 20.5 sts and 39 rows = 4 in / 10 cm in Garter stitch, unblocked 20.5 sts and 29.5 rows = 4 in / 10 cm in Stockinette stitch, unblocked **SUGGESTED YARN** *Note: If you would like to keep your swatch (or you have a gauge discrepancy) you will require additional yardage.
