River Pebbles Shawl DK

This pattern was designed for the 2023 Sierra Nevada Yarn Crawl Make-A-Long, which is an annual summer MAL that gets everyone in the mood for the Sierra Nevada Yarn Crawl. This yarn crawl is largely centered around Lake Tahoe and the surrounding areas. I designed this shawl with the lake in mind. If you’ve ever walked into the shallows of the lake, you know there are river pebbles GALORE to step on. If you pick up one of those pebbles and toss it into the lake, you get beautiful ripples. The stripes in the River Pebbles Shawl represent the ripples, and the double crochet cluster rows represent the beautiful river pebbles.

It’s time to go stash diving and join in this year’s make-a-long! I’ve designed 2 versions of the River Pebbles Shawl - one in DK weight (you are here) and one in fingering weight. Each version uses just 2 skeins - I recommend a variegated and a coordinating tonal/solid, but go crazy with your colors!
