Mabie Forest Shawl

Introducing a stunning crescent shawl featuring a gorgeous leaf lace pattern and a beautifully pointed edging. This enchanting shawl begins with a wide crescent shape worked in soft garter stitch, followed by a deceptively simple yet intricate lace design that will captivate both novice and experienced knitters alike. With a huge wingspan of 270 cm (106 inches), this shawl is perfect for wrapping yourself up in, offering versatility in how you choose to wear it—whether draped elegantly over your shoulders or styled creatively as a cozy accessory.

Yarn: For this exquisite shawl, we recommend Shleep Yarns Tussah Silk Lace in the stunning Colourway Emerald. This luxurious yarn is made from 100% Tussah Silk, providing an unparalleled softness and sheen, with each 100 g skein containing an impressive 984 m (1076 yds) of material.

Dimensions: After completing the pattern, your shawl will boast a remarkable wingspan of 270 cm (106 inches) and a width of 66 cm (26 inches) at its widest point, making it an ideal addition to your fall and winter wardrobe.

Needles: To create this beautiful shawl, you will need a 4.5 mm (US 7) 100 cm (40 inch) circular needle for working flat. For the bind-off, a larger 6.5 mm (US 10.5) needle is required to ensure a loose and elegant finish.

Gauge: Achieve a precision gauge of 17 stitches and 32 rows in garter stitch after blocking, ensuring your shawl turns out as beautifully as intended.

Extras: Don't forget to gather a tapestry needle for weaving in loose ends and a mat with T-pins for effective blocking, which is crucial for enhancing the overall look of your finished piece.

This crescent shawl pattern is not just a delightful knitting project; it's a beautiful accessory that can add a touch of elegance to any outfit.
