Assawoman Bay

Discover the beauty of Assawoman Bay with our exclusive sideways shawlette knitting pattern, inspired by the vibrant colors of the Ocean City Boardwalk! This delightful piece, named Boardwalk Lights (the exclusive MDSW 2018 Colorway), is not only a stunning accessory but also a fantastic way to use most of your skein. Begin by weighing your yarn at the start of your project; you'll increase stitch count until you reach the halfway point, after which you'll seamlessly transition into a decreasing phase to complete this lovely shawlette.

Finished Size: After blocking, this gorgeous shawlette measures approximately 17 inches by 60 inches, making it a perfect wrap for cool evenings or a stylish addition to your outfit.

Yarn: This pattern calls for Dragonfly Fibers Djinni Sock yarn, a luxurious blend of 80% Superwash Merino, 10% Cashmere, and 10% Nylon, providing not only warmth but also a soft touch. Each skein offers 420 yards and weighs 4.2 ounces (the sample was knit in the enchanting Boardwalk Lights colorway).

Needles: To create your beautiful shawlette, use a 24” circular needle in size 6 US (4.00 mm) or choose another size that helps you achieve the desired gauge for your project.

Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 18 stitches and 28 rows per 4 inches in wet-blocked stockinette. While gauge isn't critical for this piece, it can influence the drape and the total amount of yarn you'll need.

Embrace the creative challenge of this sideways shawlette and enjoy the enchanting hues inspired by the scenic Assawoman Bay. Perfect for intermediate knitters looking to enhance their skills, this pattern combines elegance with a simple technique, making it a rewarding project to add to your collection.
