Introducing a stunning asymmetrical shawl pattern that begins at the top center and elegantly works outward towards a beautifully defined border. This modern shawl features one wing that is intentionally longer than the other, creating a visually striking design. Crafted primarily in alternating 2-row stripes of Garter stitch, this project includes six artistic inserts of a third contrasting color. These inserts are skillfully shaped using short rows, adding to the unique asymmetry of the shawl. The shawl's border is also accentuated with the third contrasting color, enhancing its overall appeal and style.

Yarn: You will need 5 skeins of yarn in three beautiful colors from Tukuwool Fingering by Tukuwool (100% wool; 195m/213y per 50g). The specific color requirements are 2 skeins of CC1 in color 11 Auri, 2 skeins of CC2 in color 1 Sake, and 1 skein of CC3 in color 13 Uupo. Alternatively, feel free to substitute with any three colors of fingering weight yarn that has a similar yardage, ensuring you achieve the correct gauge for this lovely shawl.

Needles: For this project, you will need a 4.0 mm/US #6 circular needle that is 100 cm/40” long. This length is ideal for accommodating your growing shawl as you work.

Other Supplies: Don't forget to gather 3 stitch markers and a tapestry needle for weaving in those ends for a polished finish.

Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 18 stitches and 34 rows = 10 cm/4” in Garter stitch, measured flat after wet blocking. While getting the exact gauge isn’t crucial for this shawl project, be aware that variations may affect the final size and the total yardage required.
