Amelia Shawl

The Amelia Shawl is a beautifully crafted asymmetric triangle shawl that begins with just a few stitches and gradually increases along one edge, creating a stunning accessory that showcases your knitting skills. Starting with a relaxing garter stitch section, this shawl transitions into an elegant stitch pattern featuring eyelets combined with knit and purl stitches, which create captivating texture and depth. This pattern is not only easy to memorize, making it perfect for knitters of all levels, but it is also ideal for beginners looking to venture into lace knitting.

One of the best features of the Amelia Shawl is its adaptability; you can easily adjust the size by simply stopping when the shawl reaches your desired length. This makes it a wonderful project for knitters who appreciate versatility in their creations. The sample is knitted using the luxurious Malabrigo Sock yarn in the shade Frank Ochre, and the shawl requires slightly less than two 100g (3.5oz) skeins, ensuring a cozy and warm finish.

Even though the shawl is knitted flat, I recommend using a 3.75mm (US 5) needle that is at least 60cm (24”) long to comfortably accommodate the increasing number of stitches as you progress. Whether you’re making this shawl for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, the patterns are available in both written and charted formats, catering to your preferred knitting style. Dive into the world of lace with the Amelia Shawl and create a stunning piece that you can cherish for years to come!
