Loft (DK knitted)

Introducing the Loft shawl, a beautifully slightly asymmetric design that brings a touch of elegance to your knitting projects. This shawl is knitted from the narrowest point, gradually broadening as you progress, making it not only visually appealing but also a joy to knit. The Loft pattern is an easy-to-follow design that utilizes a series of color changes to add definition and interest, perfect for both beginner and experienced knitters seeking a relaxing project. Inspired by a delightful weekend getaway with friends at the Edinburgh Yarn Festival, the striped design symbolizes the numerous flights of stairs we climbed to reach our charming city-centre accommodation, aptly named The Loft.

The structure of this pattern is simple yet incredibly effective, incorporating easily memorizable increases, decreases, and color transitions. It is worked sideways, starting from the smallest point, which means your rows will get progressively longer as you knit through the pattern. This feature makes the Loft shawl a fantastic on-the-go project, as it's straightforward enough to knit while enjoying your favorite music or chatting with friends.

Yarn: The wool featured in this pattern is the luxurious John Arbon Textiles Knit By Numbers DK (Merino), available in three stunning shades: KBN068 (A), KBN070 (B), and KBN072 (C). This high-quality yarn not only feels wonderful against your skin but also enhances the rich color palette of this shawl.

Whether you’re looking to create a stunning gift for a loved one or simply want to treat yourself to a beautiful accessory, the Loft shawl is the perfect project.
