Echo Lake Cluster Shawl
Introducing our captivating knit wrap pattern, inspired by traditional Japanese techniques! This striking shawl features three distinctive stitches: the elegant Ine cluster stitch (smocked), a unique cable stitch that adds stunning texture, and a delicate faggotting stitch that enhances its overall beauty.
The shawl is designed to be knit in a continuous pattern, eliminating the need for any grafting or Kitchener stitch, which makes it easy to achieve a perfectly symmetrical piece. Whether you're wearing it or gifting it, this versatile knit wrap is sure to impress!
Additionally, the pattern includes instructions for an optional crocheted edging for those looking to add an extra touch of finesse. All stitches in this pattern are thoroughly explained in both written format and charted visuals, making it easy for you to follow along.
Skill Level: Intermediate. It is recommended that you have a good working knowledge of cable-lace knitting techniques. The optional crochet edging is also suited for an intermediate skill level, assuming you have basic experience with crocheting.
The sample shawl shown was beautifully crafted using Sportmate yarn in the shade Key Largo; however, this pattern is versatile enough to work with any heavy weight fingering yarn or sport weight yarn of your choice. If you prefer not to add a crochet edge, no crochet hooks are required!
Get ready to elevate your knitting skills with this stunning and unique shawl pattern. Perfect for those who are looking to expand their repertoire, this project will challenge and delight you as you create a beautiful, one-of-a-kind accessory that showcases your knitting prowess.
