Feynan
Introducing the Feynan Asymmetrical Shawl, a stunning knitting pattern designed for lace weight yarn enthusiasts. This beautifully crafted shawl features a unique asymmetrical shape and is entirely knit in garter stitch, showcasing two exquisite mosaic knit sections. The shawl is elegantly finished with an i-cord bind-off, and you have the option to add stylish tassels for an extra flair or leave it simple and chic. While the mosaic sections are provided solely in chart form, don’t worry—there are comprehensive instructions available that will guide you on how to read and follow the chart, making it accessible even for those who may not be experienced with charted knitting.
After blocking, the wingspan of the Feynan shawl measures an impressive 2.05 meters (80.7 inches), providing ample warmth and versatility. To create this beautiful piece, you will need the following yardage: Main Color: 480 meters (525 yards); Contrast Color 1: 348 meters (380 yards) or 385 meters (421 yards) if you plan to add tassels; Contrast Color 2: 273 meters (298 yards). For the best results, we highly recommend using a soft yarn, which enhances the texture and drape of the mosaic knitting, creating a luxuriously soft accessory.
The name Feynan is inspired by a beautiful area in the south-west of Jordan, nestled within the breathtaking Dana Biosphere Reserve. While some may perceive the terrain as simply rocks and desert, I envision the delicate beauty of pink and white oleander, the resilience of jojoba trees, and the fluttering of butterflies alongside desert wasps as they build their nests in peaceful harmony. This serene location, far removed from any light and noise pollution, serves as a true sanctuary for recharging the spirit and igniting creativity.
Whether you are a seasoned knitter or a budding enthusiast, the Feynan Asymmetrical Shawl knitting pattern is sure to provide you with a fulfilling and charming project.
