This collaboration with Bad Lux Designs is a special one-skein shawl pattern designed for Indie Untangled’s Where We Knit subscription box for February 2024. Our theme is city knitting. I’m from New York City and Kate is from Denver, and we’re both inspired by knitting in the city. Whether we’re commuting or cozied up in a cafe while it snows, we always have our knitting with us, ready to sneak in a few rows any chance we get. Our urban adventures are stitched into our projects, serving as a reminder of where we’ve been and where we’re going. I am and will always be a city kid, with at least one project in my bag.

This fingering weight asymmetrical triangle shawl is knit from one corner out to the bind off edge, with simple increases forming the shawl’s shape.
