Sandlines

$7.00

Sandlines is a chance to explore in stitches the angular motifs of the American Southwest. The flowing and overlapping zigzags over a 2x2 ribbed background was inspired by the practice of sand raking and tire tracks along desert roads. Made from the bottom up in one piece, this gorgeous scarf’s inspiration might harken to Southwest of years past, but is entirely modern in its clean, minimalist lines and texture, making it an outerwear staple for the modern knitter.

Your purchase of a digital download will include the pattern in PDF format.
