Introducing our "From Drops to Ponds" crescent shawl — a lightweight and airy masterpiece that you can create with ease. This stylish shawl is worked from the top down, incorporating a lovely blend of garter stitch and elegant eyelet stripes. The combination of these textures not only adds dimension but also makes it a perfect piece for any season.
Yarn: For this project, we recommend using West Yorkshire Spinners Exquisite 4ply yarn. This luxurious fingering weight yarn is composed of 80% Falkland Wool and 20% Mulberry Silk, providing an exquisite feel and drape. Each 100g skein offers an impressive 400m, allowing for beautiful, flowing designs.
Needles: You will need a 4mm circular needle, ideally 60 to 80cm in length, to accommodate the shape and ensure you can easily work on the shawl without any fuss.
Gauge: Achieve the perfect drape with a gauge of 20 stitches x 36 rows per 10cm in garter stitch after blocking. This gauge is crucial for ensuring that your finished shawl has the right fit and texture.
Size: The completed shawl will measure approximately 162 cm in width and 40 cm in height, making it a versatile accessory that can be worn in various ways — draped over your shoulders or wrapped cozily around your neck.
