Balm

We hope you find peace in every stitch, calm with every breath, and wellbeing in the rhythm of your days. Although we remain apart to stay safe, together we stay strong and connected through our creativity and love for knitting.

This exquisite piece is the result of a talented creative collaboration between a skilled designer, an innovative dyer, and a passionate local yarn store (LYS) owner.

Finished Measurements: This beautifully crafted shawl measures 14 1/2” / 37 cm deep and 68 1/2” / 174 cm long at the neck edge, making it a versatile accessory for any outfit.

Yarn: For this project, we recommend using 3DogKnits 50/50 Sport yarn, which is a luxurious blend of 50% merino wool and 50% silk. Each skein provides 375 yards / 343 meters of high-quality yarn in a 115-gram skein. This lovely shawl is shown in the stunning shade of "Teal," while an additional color option is available in "Dark Teal," with 3DogKnits’ 50/50 Sport providing 175 yards / 160 meters per 50-gram skein.

Needles: You will need US 5 / 3.75 mm circular needles, preferably 24” / 60 cm in length, as this pattern is worked flat for optimal ease and comfort.

Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 20 stitches and 40 rows per 4 inches / 10 cm in garter stitch after blocking to ensure your finished piece matches the intended size and drape.

Notions: Additional supplies include optional stitch markers to help keep track of your progress and a yarn needle for weaving in those pesky ends once you finish your shawl.

Whether you are knitting for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, this pattern offers an enjoyable experience, perfect for knitters at any skill level looking to elevate their accessory collection. Embrace the joy of crafting and the comfort of knitting with this beautiful shawl pattern!
