Kastanie

Kastanie, meaning chestnut in German, is an eye-catching triangular shawl that features a stunning cable-lace motif. Designed to be worked sideways from one tip to the opposite edge, this shawl not only makes for an enjoyable knitting experience but also results in a versatile accessory that is easy to wear and style.

This knitting pattern is both addictive and relatively quick to complete, providing you with a gorgeous finished piece that will become a warm and cozy addition to your winter wardrobe essentials. Whether you’re dressing up for a night out or looking to stay comfortable during a chilly day, the Kastanie shawl is the perfect blend of style and functionality.

The pattern includes fully written row-by-row instructions as well as charted options, allowing you to choose the method that best suits your knitting style and preferences. This flexibility ensures that you can easily follow the pattern no matter your experience level. I truly hope you enjoy creating this stunning shawl and wearing it proudly!

YARN: The Kastanie shawl is designed for worsted to aran weight yarn in solid or semi-solid colorways. You'll need approximately 632 m (692 yds) to achieve the size of the sample. This pattern is easily adjustable, making it suitable for different yarn weights and yardages. For the sample, I used Woolfolk TOV (aran weight, 100g = 158 m / 173 yds), requiring 4 skeins in the exquisite colourway T9 Marron. Additionally, an alternative yarn option is provided below to help you find the perfect match for your project.

With its unique design and beautiful texture, the Kastanie shawl is not just a knitting project; it’s a statement piece that will enhance your knitting collection. Whether for personal use or as a thoughtful gift, this shawl is sure to impress!
