Discover the versatile Night Flier short row wrap, a stunning shawl pattern featuring innovative short row construction. This unique design is accompanied by a detailed video tutorial and links to additional resources that will help you master the short row technique, making it an excellent choice for knitters of all skill levels.
The hunt for the perfect shawl pattern has led you here! The Night Flier wrap can be worn in a multitude of ways, adapting to your style and needs. Pin it with your favorite shawl pin to transform it into a dramatic cape with striking barbs that showcase the beautiful short row wedges. Alternatively, wear it as a cozy scarf, allowing its lovely points to drape elegantly at the front. Depending on the yarn used, this wrap can serve as a lightweight shawl for those breezy evenings or a warm, comforting wrap for cooler days.
The pattern includes adjustable directions, enabling you to customize the size of your Night Flier to suit your preferences. Here are a few examples of finished dimensions using different yarn types:
- Wollmeise Pure 150g: Length - 155 cm, Width at widest point - 60 cm
- Schoppelwolle Zauberball 100g: Length - 150 cm, Width at widest point - 50 cm
- Lady Dee Traumgarne 300g: Length - 270 cm, Width at widest point - 75 cm
Gauge is not critical, giving you the freedom to create your wrap as you see fit! While I found gauge on 3mm needles to work well, you might discover that larger needles better suit your knitting style, especially if you tend to knit loosely. Don't forget to gather 4 stitch markers to help streamline your knitting process.
Whether you're adding to your personal collection or creating a gift for someone special, the Night Flier short row wrap is a perfect project that combines functionality with artistic flair. Start your knitting journey today and embrace the beauty of this adaptable design!
