Mojito

Introducing the Mojito Shawl, a stunning crescent-shaped accessory that captures the essence of the refreshing cocktail it’s named after. This beautifully designed shawl features a main body adorned with delicate mint leaves that gracefully guide your eye towards a vibrant border bursting with lively bubbles and a zesty flair—perfect for adding a splash of color and fun to any outfit. It’s the ideal accessory for spring and summer gatherings, and the only thing missing is the straw!

The original Mojito Shawl pattern was crafted using exquisite yarn options, including Dye Diana Dye FlaxenSilk Lace, Handmaiden Fine Yarns Lino, and Dibadu Funnies – Seda de Campo Lace. However, this versatile pattern is suitable for almost any lace weight or fingering weight yarn you have on hand. When selecting your yarn, aim for one that blocks beautifully and can accommodate the intricate beadwork, as the majority of the beads are concentrated along the stunning border.

You can knit the Mojito Shawl as written to create an elegant laceweight shawl, or opt for a large shawl in fingering weight. If you're looking for something smaller and more manageable, simply work one repeat of Chart 2 to produce a charming smaller version in fingering weight, making this shawl a versatile addition to your knitting repertoire.

PLEASE NOTE: The quantities of the specified yarns provided in this pattern are sufficient for creating the full laceweight shawl as designed. However, they will only cover the smaller fingering weight shawl (i.e., one repeat of Chart Two), necessitating additional yarn for a larger fingering weight shawl if you choose that route. Embrace your creativity and make the Mojito Shawl your next knitting project—it's sure to be a refreshing addition to your collection!
