Madelinetosh Tappan Zee Shawl Kit - Scarf and Shawls

The undulating curves of Tappan Zee suggest the movement of the water below and the eyelet band is the lights on the bridge at night. This is the bridge from Nancy's childhood, but it could easily be the Golden Gate Bridge, Sydney Harbor Bridge, Tower Bridge or Brooklyn Bridge. Tappan Zee is worked from the top down starting with a garter stitch tab. Increasing 6 stitches on every right side row, three at each side, gives Tappan Zee its wide crescent shape. The slipped stitch pattern means you only use one color in a row making this look much more complicated than it really is.
