Hope
Introducing the exquisite "Hope" shawl knitting pattern, designed for experienced knitters looking to challenge their skills with a unique and beautiful project. This pattern features an intriguing construction method, with the center lace and cable section crafted from three separate panels that are started individually and then elegantly joined together, resulting in a stunning piece worked in one continuous flow from the bottom to the top. The sides of the shawl are cleverly picked up along a slipped stitch edge, utilizing the k2tog technique to create a lovely angled lower edge that adds to the overall visual appeal. For those who want to elevate their crafting even further, tassels are an optional embellishment; there’s an ideal spot for adding them near the lower edge. The "Hope" shawl pattern is presented in charts only, making it essential for knitters to be comfortable reading and interpreting charts. To create this beautiful piece, you'll need approximately 1000 yards of sport weight yarn; our favorite recommendation is Miss Babs Yummy 3-ply, known for its excellent quality and softness. The stunning color used in the sample is "Family," which truly brings this design to life! For your tools, you’ll need a set of #5 (4.00mm) knitting needles, 4 markers to help keep track of your project, and a tapestry needle for finishing touches. Once blocked, this gorgeous shawl boasts a finished size of 21 inches down the center back and 85 inches across the shoulders—perfect for wrapping yourself in warmth and style.
