Kiesel
Introducing the stunning Kiesel Shawl pattern, a beautifully crafted triangular shawl that features a captivating alternating cable-rib motif. This eye-catching design is not only visually striking but also incredibly cosy, making it the perfect accessory for any wardrobe.
Named "Kiesel," meaning "pebbles" in German, this shawl is knit sideways from one tip to the opposite edge. This unique construction method not only adds an element of fun to the knitting experience but also provides a flattering and easy-to-wear shape. The rhythmic pattern combined with the textured cables makes this an addictive knit that you'll find hard to put down.
The finished Kiesel Shawl is destined to become a classic staple in your wardrobe, providing warmth and style throughout the seasons. Whether you're dressing up for a night out or adding a layer of comfort to your everyday ensembles, this shawl will elevate your look.
This pattern is designed for versatility, featuring both fully written row-by-row instructions and charted instructions. You can choose which format you prefer to work from, making it suitable for knitters of all levels, from beginners to experienced crafters.
When it comes to materials, Kiesel is crafted using fingering weight yarn. You will need approximately 732 m / 800 yds to achieve the sample's size, but this pattern is easily adjustable to accommodate different yarn weights and yardages. For the sample, we used The Blue Brick Killarney Sock, a delightful fingering weight yarn that offers a luxurious feel (130 g = 457 m / 500 yds). Specifically, the sample features 1 "Mammoth" skein in the enchanting Feather colorway, which gracefully transitions from a rich dark brown-grey to soft grey and finally to a natural shade.
To ensure your knitting experience is seamless, we recommend using 3.5 mm / US 4 needles for the sample. With just the right tools and this easy-to-follow pattern, you'll be on your way to creating a beautiful addition to your collection. We hope you enjoy every stitch of the pattern!
