Cross Keys Shawl Stole Scarf

Discover the perfect knitting project with this beautifully intricate pattern for an ornately cabled shawl, measuring 20 1/2 inches wide and 74 inches long. This versatile pattern also includes detailed instructions for a stunning stole (15 1/2 inches wide), a wide scarf (11 1/2 inches wide), and a narrow scarf (7 inches wide), allowing you to choose the ideal accessory for your style and occasion. Each piece is knitted using light worsted weight yarn, making it an excellent choice for all seasons.

This exquisite stole features 4 distinct Aran cables, reminiscent of the timeless Fisherman Shawls of yesteryear, adding elegance and sophistication to your wardrobe. Please note that the stitches are presented in charted format only, so a strong understanding of cabling is essential for this intermediate-level project. For those who wish to add a touch of flair, the pattern includes optional instructions for a lovely crocheted border to edge the shawl, ensuring it stands out beautifully.

The sample shawl is crafted with Handmaiden’s Organic Chinook yarn, but any light worsted weight yarn will work perfectly with this pattern, giving you the freedom to express your creativity. No crochet hooks are required if you decide to forgo the edging, making this project a straightforward and enjoyable knitting experience.
