Diamond Edged Shawl
Introducing a stunning shawl that embodies the essence of Victorian charm, featuring beautifully textured diamonds delicately along the edge. This exquisite shawl is not only a perfect accessory for any outfit, but it also makes a lovely gift for friends and family who appreciate handcrafted elegance.
Finished Measurements: After wet blocking, the wingspan measures 66 inches (167.5 cm) with a depth of 26 inches (66 cm) at the center, offering ample coverage and warmth.
Yarn: This pattern calls for 600 yards (549 meters) of worsted weight / 8-ply yarn that meets the gauge requirement. For the sample, we used Sweet Fiber Yarns Cashmerino Worsted in the beautiful colourway Rose Garden, which adds a soft touch to the overall look of the shawl.
Needle Size: You'll need a US size 9 (5.5 mm) long circular needle to accommodate the large number of stitches, along with another US size 9 (5.5 mm) for the bind-off process, ensuring a neat finish.
Notions: Don’t forget to have a tapestry needle and a stitch marker on hand, as they are essential for a smooth knitting experience and finishing touches.
Gauge: The gauge is 16 stitches = 4 inches (10 cm) in Diamond Stitch after wet blocking. While achieving gauge is not critically important, it can affect yarn usage and the final dimensions of your shawl.
Skill Level: This pattern is best suited for knitters at the intermediate skill level, offering a rewarding challenge for those looking to expand their crafting abilities.
Notes: The shawl is designed in a classic heart-shaped triangle style, knit from the top down using a garter stitch body complemented by elegant diamond patterns along the edge. The pattern provides both written and charted instructions, making it easy to follow along and create your own stunning piece.
