Summer Stock Shawlette

I’ve always loved how summer community theatre gives amateur actors the opportunity to perform. While the lead roles may still be competitive, anybody and everybody can be involved; if you want a part in the show, you can at least join the chorus or crew. The attitude seems to be “the more the merrier.” The performance atmosphere is decidedly more relaxed and inviting than traditional theatre, making a night at the theatre accessible to everyone.

Summer Stock Shawlette is a shallow crescent-shaped shawl knit from the top down. The stockinette fabric is light and airy, like the easy-going mood of summer stock theatre. The shaping is simple enough to knit while you wait for the show to start. Enlarged yarnovers along the border flutter in the breeze. You just might steal the show with your stunning new shawl.
