Iszara

Are you ready to create a stunning eye-catching accessory? If you have a bold color combination in mind just waiting to come alive on your needles, the Iszara shawl could be the perfect project for you! This beautiful piece is not only practical but also a fantastic way to showcase your knitting skills and creativity.

The Iszara shawl is a striking striped, semi-circular design that is beautifully knitted in garter stitch. This pattern features an engaging array of stripes created using the intarsia technique, allowing you to incorporate vibrant colors that will surely turn heads. If you’re new to intarsia, there's no need to worry! It’s a relatively simple technique. To achieve those stunning color changes, simply twist the yarns whenever you switch colors in the middle of a row. When you move from one color to another, place the new working yarn UNDER the old working yarn to trap it securely. Lastly, remember to pull all ends a bit tight to maintain a neat finish. That’s all there is to it!

For this project, you’ll need a total of 4 skeins of Quince & Co Finch in the lovely Kittywake (main color) and 1 skein of Quince & Co Finch in the cheerful Carrie’s Yellow (contrast color). These high-quality yarn options ensure a soft, warm, and durable shawl that you will cherish for years to come. If you’re looking for alternatives, we’ve also included substitute yarn options below to help you find the perfect materials to bring your vision to life.

Whether you wear it as a statement piece or gift it to a fellow knitting enthusiast, the Iszara shawl is a delightful project that will certainly spark creativity and joy. Get your knitting needles ready and let’s bring your colorful ideas into reality!
