Pattern Specifications

Size: Wingspan: 84” / 213 cm, Depth: 18” / 46 cm

Materials: You will need a total of 231 yards / 211 meters of DK weight yarn, broken down as follows: 152 yards / 139 meters in Color 1 (C1), 165 yards / 151 meters in Color 2 (C2), and a 10% buffer has been added to all amounts to ensure you have enough yarn to complete this lovely shawl.

For this project, we recommend using Cape May Fiber DK Merino, which is a luxurious 100% Superwash Merino yarn, offering both warmth and comfort. Specifically, you will need:

• 1 skein in Velvet Corset (a captivating grey/black tonal with soft purple hues) for C1
• 1 skein in Crunchy Leaves (a beautiful blend of orange, gold, and brown with hints of pink) for C2
• 1 skein in Fog (a soft, tonal silver) for C3

Essential Tools: To craft this exquisite shawl, you will require a US Size 9 (5.5mm) circular knitting needle, ideally 32” (80 cm) in length. This needle size will help you create a fabric that drapes beautifully and showcases the intricate stitch patterns.

Gauge: It’s important to achieve the correct tension for your project; your gauge should be 18 stitches and 36 rows per 4” (10 cm) in both Garter Stitch and Mosaic Stitch after blocking. Always check your gauge and adjust your needle size if necessary to ensure your shawl turns out as beautifully as intended.
