Meadowsweet Shawl

Introducing the stunning Meadowsweet Shawl, an asymmetric triangle-shaped shawl that begins from the right corner and elegantly concludes with a charming picot bind-off at the left edge. This beautiful design has been thoughtfully crafted in collaboration with Botanical Yarn, making it a perfect addition to your knitting collection.

YARN REQUIREMENTS: For this shawl, you'll need 2 skeins of Botanical Yarn Sock 4 ply, which is a high-quality blend of 75% merino wool and 25% nylon. Each skein offers a generous length of 425m (465 yds) per 100g, totaling 850m (930 yds) of fingering weight yarn required for the entire project. Whether you stick with the suggested yarn or choose another fingering weight option, you will create an exquisite finished piece.

NEEDLES: To create your Meadowsweet Shawl, you’ll require 3.5mm (US 4) circular needles, ideally at least 100cm (40”) long. The length allows for comfortable knitting and plenty of space for the shawl's strokes as you work from one corner to the next.

GAUGE: Achieve a gauge of 25 stitches and 32 rows, which translates to 10cm (4 inches) in garter stitch on 3.5mm (US 4) needles once blocked. While gauge is not critical for shawl projects, variations in gauge will impact the final size of your shawl and the amount of yarn required, so be sure to swatch accordingly.

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS: Upon completion, your Meadowsweet Shawl will measure approximately 162cm (65”) wide at the neck and taper down to 117cm (47”) at the bind-off edge, creating a beautiful drape that you will love to wear.

NOTIONS: Don’t forget to have a tapestry needle on hand for weaving in those ends, ensuring your shawl is as polished as it is delightful.
