Mapes

Introducing the Mapes Shawl, the second pattern in our delightful series of shoulder-hugging crescent-shaped shawls. This easy-to-knit pattern is designed to create comforting wraps that will become your new favorite accessory. The Mapes pattern includes detailed instructions for a simple stockinette and garter stitch version, beautifully showcased in the accompanying photographs, along with variations that allow for personal design creativity.

One of the best features of the Mapes Shawl is its versatility; you can craft it in any yarn of your choice to achieve your desired size and style. Both variegated and handspun yarns work exceptionally well for these designs, as the simplicity of the pattern beautifully complements the unique characteristics of the yarn. Since these shawls are designed to be knit until you've used up your yarn, they are perfect for utilizing skeins with unusual or oversized put-ups, making them an excellent option for every knitter's stash.

Though the listed yarn and needle information refers to the pictured shawl, remember that this pattern is adaptable to any yarn and needle combination you prefer. The possibilities are endless, and we encourage you to explore different yarn options to make your Mapes Shawl truly one-of-a-kind. (Additional yarn suggestions are included that I believe would work brilliantly!)

The instructions for the Mapes Shawl are provided in a clear, written format, eliminating the need for complex charts. Plus, the pattern comes with a convenient link to the Twisted German Cast-On technique — perfect for those who wish to travel with their knitting project. Don't miss out on the chance to create something stunning and practical. Link Here to access the free pattern and start your knitting adventure with the Mapes Shawl today!
