Ceket

The Ceket is a beautifully designed long, narrow triangle-shaped garter stitch shawl or scarf, expertly knitted sideways and top down, expertly shaped using short rows. To add a unique touch, the last section of short rows is knitted in reverse garter stitch, creating an intriguing texture. This stunning shawl is crafted by holding one strand of lace weight yarn and one strand of luxurious kidsilk together, resulting in a lightweight yet warm accessory perfect for any season.

Yarn Requirements:

To create the Ceket shawl, you will need to hold two strands together: one from a lace weight yarn and one from a kidsilk blend. The total yarn requirements include:

• 50 g of lace weight yarn (approximately 400 m/437 yds per 50 g) in two different colors, with 25 g of each color.
• 50 g of lace weight mohair/silk blend (approximately 210 m/218 yds per 25 g) in one or two complementary colors.

Essential Tools:

This shawl requires a few essential tools to ensure your knitting experience is smooth and enjoyable:

• A 4.00 mm/US 6 circular needle, with a length of 100 cm/40” or longer to accommodate the large number of stitches.
• Safety pins or removable markers to keep track of your short rows.
• A tapestry needle for weaving in ends and finishing your shawl neatly.

Gauge Information:

The recommended gauge for this pattern is 26 stitches x 28 rows, measuring approximately 10 x 10 cm (4” x 4”) in garter stitch after blocking. Please note that the sample shawls were vigorously blocked to achieve the desired texture and drape.
