Knitting Pattern Winter Merino Wool Bridal Shawl

If you're an engaged knitter, imagine the joy of walking down the aisle wrapped in a stunning knit shawl that you created with your own hands—a true labor of love.
YOU WILL NEED: To successfully knit this beautiful shawl, I used a triple-folded sock yarn—specifically, Alize Cashmira Fine. This 3-ply wool yarn is categorized as light fingering, with the following specifications: 100 g yields approximately 450 m (3.53 oz. gives you around 492 yds). For this project, you'll need 6 x 100 g balls of yarn, a pair of 5.5 mm (9 US, 5 UK) knitting needles, and a yarn needle for finishing touches.
GAUGE: Achieving the right gauge is crucial for this pattern. You'll want to aim for 14 stitches and 24 rows per 10 cm (4 in) in garter stitch using the 5.5 mm needles. This will ensure that your shawl has the perfect drape and fit.
This knitting pattern is available in English and is categorized as an easy-level pattern, making it accessible for beginner knitters as well. The Winter Merino Wool Bridal Shawl pattern serves as a wedding shoulder cover-up stole, providing a warm accessory that is as stylish as it is practical. Whether you're knitting for yourself or as a gift for a loved one, this light fingering 3-ply triple-folded sock yarn project is sure to be a cherished piece.
