Drawing inspiration from a vintage Swedish cable pattern, the Global Shift Shawl showcases the distinctive offset globe cables that define the Global Shift Collection. This asymmetrical triangle begins at a narrow corner and grows with each row, featuring eye-catching cable panels running along the straight edge. The soft garter stitch base is punctuated by subtle vertical stripes created with slipped stockinette stitches, adding depth and visual interest to the squishy, textured fabric. Knitted in The Fibre Co.’s Herb & Hue, this plant-dyed extra-fine Merino brings remarkable softness and complex, living color to every stitch. The yarn’s round, plump texture makes garter stitch irresistibly squishy while allowing the offset cables to shine with crisp definition. Starting from the pointed edge with increases at the end of every right-side row, this shawl offers an engaging knit that’s perfect for cooler autumn evenings. Let the Global Shift Shawl become your companion for the season, wrapping you in both warmth and the artistry of botanical color. Yarn: The Fibre Co. Herb & Hue (100% extra fine Merino wool, 214 m (234 yd) per 100 g hank) – 4 hanks. Shown in shades Khmer Spice and Venetian Terrace. Construction notes: The Global Shift Shawl is worked from the narrow tip upward, increasing at the end of every right-side row to form an asymmetrical triangle. As the stitch count grows, two distinct stitch patterns emerge: a cable motif and a combination of garter stitch with slipped stitches. The shawl develops in layered sections—beginning with an edging in the garter and slipped stitch pattern, followed by a section in the cable pattern, and then expanding into a larger area of garter and slipped stitches as the shape continues to grow.
