Finished Measurements: Enjoy a generous wingspan of 84" / 213 cm and a center depth of 15" / 38 cm. Please note: This shawl must be aggressively wet blocked to achieve its beautiful crescent shape, ensuring you showcase its design to the fullest.
Yarn: The Eyelet Breeze requires just 2 skeins of Superwash Sport yarn by Sweet Georgia, made from 100% premium Merino wool (328 yds / 300 m). You can also use a similar sport weight or 5-ply yarn that meets the specified gauge. The stunning sample is shown in the delightful "Candy Floss" colorway, perfect for any summer ensemble.
Needle Size: For this project, you will need a US size 7 / 4.5mm circular needle with a length of 32" or longer to accommodate the large number of stitches. This ensures a comfortable knitting experience as you create this stunning piece.
Notions: A tapestry needle is necessary for finishing touches, making it easy to weave in your ends and complete the Eyelet Breeze shawl to perfection.
Gauge: The optimal gauge for this project is 16 stitches = 4" (10 cm) in Stockinette Stitch. While gauge is not overly critical for this design, variations can affect both yardage and finished measurements, so keep this in mind during your crafting.
