Grenoble Cabled shawl
Welcome to our exclusive cabled shawl knitting pattern, perfect for both intermediate and advanced knitters looking to create a stunning piece of wearable art. This shawl is intricately knitted with sport weight yarn, resulting in a beautiful drape and warm texture. Measuring approximately 18 inches by 74 inches, this elegant shawl requires around 1000 to 1100 yards of yarn to complete, making it an engaging project for any knitting enthusiast.
The standout feature of this shawl is the focal cable stitch, showcasing a lesser-known yet captivating Aran double cable. This unique stitch adds depth and interest to the fabric, allowing the shawl to really stand out. The pattern thoughtfully includes both written instructions and charts for all stitches, ensuring that you’ll have a comprehensive reference guide as you work on your project. We highly recommend utilizing the charts for a clearer visual representation of the cable techniques!
This beautiful shawl is designed to keep you cozy throughout three seasons, even though it is knit using sport weight yarn. We used Arroyo by Malabrigo in the delightful Peachy colorway, which enhances the shawl’s overall aesthetic. The combination of warmth and lightweight fibers makes it an ideal accessory for chilly mornings or evenings.
This pattern is categorized as intermediate, so it assumes that you possess a solid working knowledge of cabling techniques and fundamental knitting skills before starting. To make your shawl even more unique, there are optional instructions provided for a lovely crocheted border. However, it's important to note that this pattern contains absolutely no additional crochet techniques if you choose not to add an edge.
The shawl can be comfortably knitted on two circular needles, making it a versatile project for knitters who enjoy this method. Plus, feel free to experiment with any sport weight yarn of your choice—just remember, no crochet hooks are necessary unless you opt for the edging.
Embark on your knitting journey with this delightful cabled shawl pattern, and add an essential piece to your wardrobe that is sure to impress and keep you warm during the cooler months!
