Seagull Flight is one of my favorite designs from my book, Brioche Knit Love: 21 Skill Building Projects from Simple to Sublime. I’m now publishing it as a stand-alone pattern, too.
Seagull Flight is a two color brioche half-pi shawl that is knit flat. It features syncopated brioche rib, and brioche increases and decreases to create the seagulls. The shawl is shaped by increasing at pre-planned intervals rather than on every row, making it a very easy to follow knit. It’s knit with two 100g skeins of fingering weight yarn, or more if you’d like a bigger shawl.
When I was working on Brioche Knit Love, I envisioned an Oregon Coast theme. We changed that to a coffee shop theme, so I had to rename all the patterns to fit that vibe. Seagull Flight is the only design that doesn’t have a coffee or pastry name.
So we photographed it with a flight of coffee!
The pattern is now available for individual purchase through Ravelry and Payhip, as well as in Brioche Knit Love. (If you’re planning to purchase more than 3 or 4 patterns, you should buy the book or ebook.) Please note that there are 2 files to download; the pattern plus an abbreviations page.

Michele, the other version of this post has a techo problem and doesn’t load – OTY, my dear small friend !!
I know; I deleted it! I was trying to publish the pattern page, but I accidentally published the blog post which wasn’t complete yet. Now we’re good!
Indeed you are – and what a BEAUTIFUL shawl this is. I think it might be my favourite of all times … but that’s going a bit far in the context of your oeuvre.
