Chain Reaction

Introducing Chain Reaction, a delightful knitting pattern inspired by the beauty of mosaic and slipped stitches! If you're passionate about color work but prefer a simple approach, this pattern is perfect for you. Chain Reaction allows you to create a stunning narrow crescent-shaped shawlette that combines garter stitch with traditional stocking stitch, ensuring that your knitting journey remains engaging and enjoyable.

What makes this pattern captivating is the frequent color changes that ignite creativity and keep the knitting process dynamic. Plus, the stocking stitch sections are artistically shaped using a clever short-row technique, adding depth and elegance to your masterpiece. To complete the shawlette, there’s just a touch of crocheting involved, making it accessible for knitters of all skill levels.

This pattern is designed with efficiency in mind—it only requires 145 grams of sock yarn, typically a single skein (100g/440 yards) of your main color, coupled with 40-45 grams (approximately 155 yards) of a contrasting color. This makes Chain Reaction the perfect project to utilize that single skein and those leftover yarn remnants hiding at the back of your stash!

The lovely grey shawl features Dye for Wool's luxurious Merino/Silk fingering yarn in the colorways Dolphin in my Bathtub (a sophisticated silver) and Bat in a Dark Mood (a rich, deep purple). Meanwhile, the vibrant green shawl showcases Tosh Merino Light in the enchanting shades of Jade and Fragrant. With Chain Reaction, you can transform your yarn collection into a beautiful accessory that showcases your knitting skills and unique style!
