Alma's mini-pompoms

This delightful shawl pattern was originally designed with love for my grandniece, Alma! Featuring a simple triangular shape, this garter stitch shawl is a joy to knit, especially when crafted with fun, speckled fingering merino yarn. To add an extra touch of whimsy, the shawl is embellished with vibrant neon mini-pompoms, creating a playful and eye-catching accessory!

After completing the first shawl and sending it off to Alma, I was inspired to create a second version that showcases a completely different aesthetic. For this second shawl, I chose a more subdued color palette and used two skeins of yarn instead of one, resulting in a richer, fuller fabric. This time, I adorned it with soft mini-mohair pompoms, giving the piece an entirely unique feel. The contrast between the two shawls highlights the versatility of this design, making it perfect for both bold and understated styles.

Whether you’re an experienced knitter or just starting out, this shawl pattern offers a fun and engaging project that allows for creativity and personalization. You can easily adapt the color choices or embellishments to match your personal style or make a thoughtful gift for someone special. Dive into the world of knitting with this charming shawl pattern and enjoy the soothing process of creating something beautiful!
