Attersee

Introducing the Attersee Shawl, a delightful and easy-to-knit accessory perfect for keeping you warm on chilly days and nights. This beautifully designed shawl is knit sideways in garter stitch, beautifully interrupted by intricate lace sections, providing you with a varied and engaging knitting experience. The addition of a charming picot border is worked seamlessly with the main body of the shawl, while a fanciful ruffle border adds the perfect finishing touch, making this piece not only cozy but also visually stunning!

This versatile pattern includes detailed instructions for two distinct sizes, allowing you to choose the one that best fits your style and needs: the large size measures 228 x 62 cm (89 ¾“ x 24 ½“) and the smaller size measures 190 x 46 cm (74 ¾“ x 18“), both after blocking for optimal drape.

When it comes to yarn, the Attersee Shawl uses sport weight yarn with a total yardage requirement that varies by size: the large version requires approximately 900 - 950 meters (985 - 1040 yards), while the small version requires about 800 - 850 meters (875 - 930 yards). Ensuring proper gauge is crucial; the recommended gauge for this project is 19 stitches x 40 rows, which measures 10 x 10 cm (4“ x 4“) in garter stitch before blocking. Achieving this gauge will help you create a beautifully structured shawl that drapes elegantly.
