Nala

"Nala", meaning "gift" in Swahili, is a beautifully designed triangular shawl that is perfect for knitters of all skill levels. Crafted using a DK weight yarn, this enchanting shawl features an intricate all-over cable pattern that not only adds wonderful texture but also enhances the insulating properties, keeping you warm during chilly months.

This stunning "Nala" shawl is ingeniously worked from the bottom up, culminating in a stylish finish that includes a simple 2x2 rib pattern and an elegant i-cord edge along the top for a polished look. Its unique construction and versatility make it an ideal project for knitters seeking both a challenge and a fashionable accessory.

One of the best aspects of the "Nala" shawl pattern is its flexibility in yarn selection. You can choose from a variety of yarns, although we recommend those with a subtle silk content for a lovely drape. That said, pure wool yarn will also yield stunning results with this pattern. Additionally, if you're looking for a lighter option, this shawl will look equally gorgeous in a sport weight yarn, providing adaptability for every knitter's preference.

The modern and simple design of "Nala" makes it the perfect accessory for the cold months, seamlessly transitioning from casual outings to formal events. Whether draped over your shoulders or worn as a stylish wrap, this shawl enhances any wardrobe.
