Kvill

Yarn Details: For this beautifully crafted shawl, we recommend using The Little Grey Girl sock set, which comprises 100g of variegated 4-ply yarn plus an additional 20g for contrast. The blend is 75% Superwash merino and 25% Nylon, offering both softness and durability. In our sample, we utilized approximately 395m from the main color and 82m from the contrasting shade, resulting in a stunning design. Needles: You will need 3.50mm (US4) needles for this project. Gauge: Ensure your gauge aligns with a broken ribbing texture: unblocked at 32 stitches per 10cm and blocked at 22 stitches per 10cm. Notions: Don't forget a stitch marker to help with your progress! Measurements (blocked): After blocking, the shawl measures approximately 165cm wingspan and 50cm deep.

Introducing Kvill, the first design in an exciting series of patterns created specifically with sock sets in mind. Each sock set, featuring 100g alongside 20g of 4-ply yarn, is perfect for the adventurous knitter. Many yarn dyers offer these delightful sets, but if you’re not keen on making socks, Kvill presents the ideal alternative.

This stunning shawl is expertly designed to use roughly 400m of your favorite 4-ply yarn for the body, complemented by an additional 80m for the elegant edging. The clever pattern is written with adaptability in mind, allowing you to adjust it easily if you have more or less yarn than specified.

The body of the Kvill shawl is crafted using a beautiful broken ribbing technique, which gives it a delightful textured appearance while gently pulling the fabric together. Upon completion, the shawl can be blocked and stretched significantly, resulting in a flowy, airy fabric that gracefully drapes around your shoulders. This versatile piece will become a cherished addition to your wardrobe and is perfect for both everyday wear and special occasions. Happy knitting!
