Desert oases
Introducing the Desert Oases Shawl: an exquisite long shawl designed to drape gracefully around your shoulders while staying securely in place, eliminating the need for a pin. This beautiful shawl features longer ends which not only enhance its elegance but also provide versatility in styling, making it the perfect accessory for any occasion.
The Desert Oases Shawl is expertly knitted in one continuous piece, starting at the intricate bottom lace edge. This unique design allows you to experiment with your creativity, as the shawl can be knitted in a single color for a classic look, or you can choose two or even several colors to create a stunning, multi-toned masterpiece that showcases your personal style.
A standout feature of this shawl is its intentional extra blocking, producing a breathtaking asymmetric wave effect in the garter ridges. This not only highlights the shawl's distinctive asymmetric pattern but also contributes to a lighter, airier feel compared to typical garter stitches, making it an ideal choice for transitioning between seasons.
The pattern provides detailed directions for crafting a large, long shawl, measuring approximately 255 centimeters in width and 65 centimeters in height. It is designed for knitters who are comfortable keeping track of their progress, assisted by stitch markers, following written instructions, and interpreting charts. Additionally, a basic understanding of the “wrap and turn” technique is required to achieve the shawl's beautiful drape.
To create your Desert Oases Shawl, you will need a yarn with a yardage of approximately 175-180 meters per 50 grams, ensuring the ideal balance of softness and structure for your finished piece. Whether you're looking to stay warm during chilly evenings or want to make a fashion statement with your knitting skills, this shawl pattern is a must-have addition to your knitting repertoire.
