Introducing the iSea Shawl, a delightful squishy garter shawl featuring charming stripes and playful eyelets. This versatile and stylish accessory is expertly crafted flat from the right tip to the left edge, showcasing a beautifully curved top edge. Perfect for knitters of all skill levels, this easy-to-follow pattern comes complete with fully written instructions, precise stitch counts, and a helpful photo tutorial on how to carry up yarn along one side seamlessly.
The iSea Shawl is designed to be both fun and functional, allowing you to express your creativity with your choice of colors. To create your beautiful masterpiece, you will need approximately 656-743 yards (600-680 meters) of fingering weight yarn. Any fingering weight yarn will work wonderfully, so feel free to choose your favorite hues that you love to mix and match. Adding a third color can create an even more stunning effect, making it a great way to showcase your personality through your knitting.
The sample shawl featured in the description uses Zauberwiese Merino SW/Silk (50% Silk/50% Wool, 100 grams - 437 yards/400 meters), specifically in the elegant color Silberbecher, requiring just 75 grams (328 yards/300 meters) of yarn. Another beautiful variation employs Life in the Long Grass Silk Merino (50% Silk/50% Wool, 100 grams - 437 yards/400 meters) in the striking color Night, using approximately 77 grams (336 yards/308 meters) of yarn.
For your knitting project, you will need a set of US 3 (3.25 mm) circular or straight needles in 24” (60 cm) length, along with stitch markers and a tapestry needle for finishing touches.
In terms of gauge, aim for 20 stitches x 54 rows to achieve a 4" (10 cm) gauge in garter stitch, blocked. While gauge is not crucial, achieving the correct gauge may affect the final size and yardage of your finished shawl.
The finished dimensions of the iSea Shawl are approximately 81" (205 cm) in wingspan along the top edge and 15" (38 cm) in width, making it a perfect wrap for any season. Enhance your accessory collection and add a touch of elegance to your wardrobe with the versatile iSea Shawl – a project that celebrates the beauty of knitting!
