English Country Garden Shawlette

Introducing our charming English Country Garden Shawlette knitting pattern, perfect for knitters looking to create a lovely accessory that captures the essence of a quaint garden stroll. This elegant shawlette begins with a garter tab and is skillfully crafted from the top down, featuring a delightful combination of single-stitch cables and twisted stitches that guide you through a beautiful bed of eyelet flowers. The journey continues into an exquisite English Mesh Lace garden, culminating in a gently scalloped edging that adds a romantic finish.

A distinctive central strip of leaf lace elegantly separates the two triangular side panels, resulting in a soft, graceful silhouette while avoiding a sharp point at the bottom of the shawlette. This unique design not only enhances the visual appeal but also makes it a perfect addition to your wardrobe.

Once blocked, the finished shawlette measures approximately 14” deep and boasts an impressive wingspan of about 35”. For those focused on achieving the best results, the pattern gauge is 10 stitches and 20 rows to 2”/5cm after blocking. While gauge is not critical, it can significantly influence the final size and yardage required for your project.

This stunning shawlette requires up to 325 yards (or 300m) of fingering weight yarn, making it an ideal choice for using a single skein of your favorite sock yarn or any similar lightweight yarn. The yarn variety available allows for infinite possibilities in colorways and textures, making this project uniquely yours.

For ease of crafting, please note that all patterned sections are charted only. To successfully complete this pattern, you should be comfortable working from charts, executing yarn-overs, crossing stitches (single-stitch cables), and performing basic increases and decreases.

This English Country Garden Shawlette pattern is an excellent opportunity to enhance your skills while creating a stunning piece that will be treasured for years to come. Dive into this delightful project and bring a touch of floral elegance to your knitting collection today!
