Kelsey Grace Shawl: A Beautiful Leaf-Inspired Knitting Pattern
The Kelsey Grace Shawl is a stunning knitting project that begins gracefully with a leaf and a half at the bottom. This unique design features the addition of new leaves on the left side, which elegantly increase to create a generous top border measuring 40”/101cm. The shawl is framed with a lovely seed stitch border along the bottom, top, and both sides, enhancing its visual appeal.
Each leaf is crafted using strategic increases with yarn overs (YO’s) and carefully shaped with decreases through SSK’s and K2tog’s, allowing knitters to master essential techniques while creating this work of art. As you progress, new leaves are seamlessly added to the left side, resulting in a breathtaking “kite” shaped shawl that will surely turn heads.
This versatile shawl can be knit in one stunning color for a classic look or utilize up to five vibrant colors through the art of intarsia, perfect for those looking to showcase their creativity. For our sample shawl, we used Isager Bomulin, a luxurious blend of 65% cotton and 35% linen, beautifully spun in Italy, ensuring both comfort and style.
Whether you’re an experienced knitter or a dedicated beginner, the Kelsey Grace Shawl offers a rewarding project that combines elegance with the joyful craft of knitting. Dive into this charming knitting pattern and bring the beauty of leaves to life in your very own masterpiece!
