Bring Good Fortune and Abundance Your Way  The main colorwork motif of the Patiki Shawl, like many of my other colorwork designs, is heavily influenced by traditional Maori taniko designs, geometric patterning woven onto borders of cloaks and dresses. This geometric formation is called “Patikitiki”, easily identifiable through the singular diamond as the dominant motif. The Patikitiki motif is meant to resemble the flounder fish, which used to be a common food source for the Maori. This is why this is the symbol for “abundance”. So when you wear the Patiki, good fortune is sure to follow (perhaps an abundance of yarn?).

The Patiki Shawl features a colorwork technique that I have not used in my designs before: Mosaic! In this top-down triangular shawl, you’ll knit in squishy garter stitch, working some simple eyelet stripes into the fabric, and at the end, the mosaic border featuring the Patiki motif.
