Product Details

Have you ever seen a black cloud of birds swooping in unison over a field? The entire group bears one direction and then suddenly changes course. It’s breathtaking. This seemingly choreographed dance of a flock of starlings is called a murmuration. (Murmuration is also the collective noun for starlings, by the way.) Each bird adjusts its movements based on small changes made by the birds around him, thereby avoiding collision. If only humans could be so attuned to their surroundings.

Murmuration Shawl was inspired by this mesmerizing flight. Twisted traveling stitches trace the converging and diverging paths across a sky of reverse stockinette. A buttonhole at one corner of the asymmetrical triangle secures the tail at your shoulder as you flit about your day.

As I was driving to find a location to photograph the shawl, I happened to spot a murmuration. How serendipitous! You can watch the video on my YouTube Channel.

Both charts and written instructions included.
