Encore Shawl

Encore Shawl Pattern is a beautiful and reversible design that is both simple and intuitive, featuring captivating elements such as garter stitch, eyelets, and stockinette. This versatile shawl is knit from the top down, which means there’s no garter tab to worry about, allowing you to dive straight into the knitting experience!

This delightful pattern begins with a simple setup row, followed by a series of decreases that create a stunning shape. This feature serves as a fabulous incentive to keep knitting as you watch your shawl take form! The Encore Shawl offers 2 stitch counts to choose from, providing flexibility in size. Whether you prefer an extra large shawl that envelops you in warmth or a more delicate style, this pattern has you covered. I personally had a blast experimenting with different yarn types, including Fingering Weight, 4 ply, DK, and even a combination of Fingering and Mohair in Version 4, which serves as the stunning ‘grand finale’ of this collection.
