Montrose Shawl

Do not adjust your monitors, this cozy confection of a shawl really is stripes on stripes!

The Montrose takes garter stripes and two-color brioche—two of my favorite squishy textures—and alternates them up the length of an asymmetrical-triangle shawl. It’s long enough to loop comfortably around your neck, drape around your shoulders, or secure with a shawl cuff to make sure the ends are on full display.

Montrose’s quest for stripes was only aided by a pair of stripe-friendly yarns. Feederbrook Farm’s Entropy DK is a springy, BFL two-ply yarn that adds gentle shifts from color to color. Brooklyn Tweed’s Arbor provided a neutral canvas with the perfect toothy texture. Together, they make a shawl that’s lofty, plush, and stripey as can be.

Feeling like you want to color inside AND outside the lines this season? Montrose might be just right.
