Gare du Nord shawl
Introducing the unique and elegant Gare du Nord shawl – a must-have accessory for any knitting enthusiast seeking to enhance their wardrobe with a touch of warmth and sophistication. This beautifully designed shawl features a triangle shape and is expertly knit on the bias, offering both a stunning visual appeal and practicality.
The Gare du Nord shawl pattern employs two complementary colors, beautifully separated by a buttonhole row. This clever technique, achieved through a combination of bind-off and cast-on stitches, introduces an open and airy composition to the minimalist design. If you relish a slight technical challenge while working on a basic knitting project, this stylish shawl will be an exciting addition to your crafting repertoire.
Once completed, weave the ends of the Gare du Nord shawl in and out of the charming buttonholes. This provides not only a secure fit during your travels but also adds delightful texture and visual interest to any outfit you pair it with! The classic color block accent acts as a warm embrace, making use of the unparalleled coziness that only garter stitch can offer.
This lovely shawl is crafted using just 2 skeins of Dreamy yarn by Anzula:
- MC (Main Color), Maple - 385 yards (352m)
- CC (Contrasting Color), Persimmon - 80 yards (73m)
Perfect for advanced beginners and seasoned knitters alike, the Gare du Nord shawl is not just a project; it’s a statement piece. This stunning shawl is featured in From Paris, With Love: a book of hand-knit gifts, making it an ideal gift for loved ones or a special treat for yourself.
