This seemed astoundingly short-sighted to me (and the situation doesn't seem to have improved since).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shawl is a part of the [Sustain the Sea collection][1], and represents the end result of fishing in an unsustainable manner - empty nets and waves. If we can raise awareness of the plight of our oceans I hope this will not come to pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmpty Nets is a triangular shawl worked from side to side, that can be made to any size, using any thickness of yarn. The centre is a simple net repeat, with a wave patterned edging, all patterning is worked on the right side only. The bind off edge is ruffled to represent the waves breaking on the shore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sample shawl uses 120g of heavy laceweight yarn (Zealana Kiwi Laceweight, 597m\/651 yards).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGauge is not critical, fabric should have a nice soft drape\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independent Designer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56749623738746,"sku":"UPID50522","price":0.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/e5cc9a57e2b80acd811826e17d8ef2adc9f222b5_UPID50522_172841597305282.jpg?v=1775913766","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.mom\/en-au\/products\/empty-nets-knitting-pattern-by-sonya-newstead","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
