Seaview Shawl Knit Along

Exciting news, knitters! Meg from Megs & Co and Jessica from Double the Stitches are teaming up for a delightful knitting adventure, and you're invited to be a part of it! 🧶✨

Inspired by Jessica’s cherished Brooklyn memories, the Seaview Shawl is a love letter to the water that has always brought her peace. It’s a magical blend of Jessica's urban roots and Meg's own shoreline childhood, captured in a single, unforgettable design.

No matter how far my journey takes me, the spirit of the water will forever reside within us—a place where we learned to dream and craft our own unique paths.

We can’t wait to see how you bring this special project to life!

A Great Project
Deserves Special Yarn!

Jessica knew instantly that our Ghost Town DK was the perfect match for the Seaview Shawl.

This isn’t just any yarn. It’s a luxurious blend of Merino and Rambouillet wool, ethically sourced from the heart of the United States and crafted into a cloud-like DK weight yarn. We’re talking seriously soft, people!

And let's not forget the stunning Ontario colorway - a breathtaking mix of blues and greens that evokes the shimmering beauty of a summer lake. It’s like capturing a piece of nature in every skein.

Would you prefer to

use yarn from your stash?

You're welcome to join us for the Knit Along too! 🤗

Here's a bit about the pattern:

The Shawl is worked from the top down so you can easily adjust the size of the shawl to your own preferred dimensions.

The center spine of the triangular shawl features a simple yet elegant cable, and the enchanting texture throughout the shawl echoes the gentle ripples and rolling waves dancing along the water’s surface.

The pattern includes:

• Fully written instructions

• A chart for the repeat

• A stitch count table to help knitters stay on track - This is really handy for knitting on the go!

• A standard formatted print-friendly version

• A Large Print Version for Low Vision and Screen Reader Accessibility is included at no additional cost, for those who struggle with low-vision or use a screen reader to access patterns.

About The Inspiration:

For months now, we've been working on a magical collaboration for you

Both of us hail from New York State and have always found inspiration in the calming presence of water.

This shared love for tranquil waterscapes has led us to create something truly special for you.

This pattern has been a labor of love, inspired by the serene beauty of water that has always been a source of peace for both Meg and Jessica.
