Elevate your knitting skills with this exquisite two-color asymmetrical triangular shawl pattern! This beautiful shawl begins with just a few stitches and gradually increases from a single point to a stunning broad border that embellishes one edge. The enchanting lace bands along the border are crafted using the main color (MC) yarn, adding an intricate touch that will surely impress.
To ensure your shawl turns out perfectly and to avoid running out of yarn, it’s crucial to obtain the correct gauge. This pattern features a blocked gauge, so adjust your needle size as necessary to achieve the recommended gauge. Accurate gauge measurement is key to realizing the sizes illustrated in the pattern.
This pattern specifically calls for DK weight yarn, perfect for achieving that cozy drape and warmth. If you opt for sport or fingering weight yarns, please keep in mind that your finished shawl may be smaller than the sizes indicated in the pattern. If you choose to use lighter weight yarn, I highly recommend knitting the large size to maintain a generous fit.
I personally used Bare Naked Wools Stone Soup DK for my shawl, with Slate as the main color and Marble as the contrast color. The other stunning shawl pictured features Jill Draper Makes Stuff Mohonk yarn in vibrant greens, showcasing the versatility of this pattern.
