Adah Shawl
Introducing the lovely Adah shawl, a beautiful knitting pattern that translates to "adornment" and "firstborn," making it an ideal choice for your very first shawl project. Designed for my "First Shawl" class, the Adah pattern provides detailed instructions for both Fingering and DK weight yarn options, ensuring versatility for knitters of all levels. This project is designed to invite creativity and play, allowing you to use any yarn and needles of your choice. Have some fun by knitting in a single color, experimenting with a stylish fade, or incorporating stripes. You can even work only the eyelet sections in a contrasting shade to create a unique design—truly, the possibilities are endless!
The Adah shawl features an asymmetrical triangle silhouette adorned with sets of three eyelets strategically placed between sections of garter stitch. This combination of texture and openwork makes it a stunning accessory for any occasion. To add an extra touch of customization, the pattern offers two different bind-off options, so you can finish your project in a way that truly reflects your personal style.
When it comes to materials, you have various options to choose from. For **Option 1**, use Contrast Fingering with yarn requirements of C1: 400 yds; C2: 340 yds. If you prefer a **Solid Fingering** finish, you'll need a total of 870 yds for **Option 2**. For those who enjoy color gradients, **Option 3** offers a **Fade Fingering** version utilizing 9 colors with the following yardage: C1: 35; C2: 40; C3: 52; C4: 72; C5: 82; C6: 94; C7: 107; C8: 145; C9: 107 yds. Alternatively, if DK weight yarn is more your style, **Option 4** requires 733 yds for a **Solid DK** shawl. Lastly, for a beautiful layered effect, **Option 5** presents the **Fade DK** option with 7 colors, requiring: C1: 34; C2: 52; C3: 84; C4: 110; C5: 130; C6: 147; C7: 160 yds.
