Ohia Shawl
Inspired by one of Hawai?i’s most iconic trees, the ??hi?a lehua, the Ohia Shawl captures the beauty of this unique flora. Its round leaves, budding flowers, and stunning fluffy blossoms are artfully recreated in knitted fabric using delicate lace, miniature nupps, and an array of contrasting yarn textures.
The Ohia Shawl is beautifully crafted in a chic V-shape, making it not only easy to knit but also incredibly comfortable to wear. With alternating stripe patterns, this shawl offers the perfect “just one more row” knitting experience that will keep you engaged and excited as you create. This pattern is designed to showcase the luxurious Bubbly Bouclé yarn, harmoniously paired with a smooth yarn companion to produce a delightfully textured fabric. Additionally, the design works wonderfully with other yarns, such as Suri or mohair, allowing for versatility and creativity in your choice of materials.
One of the standout features of the Ohia Shawl pattern is its adjustable length. You can easily increase or decrease the size of the shawl to maximize your available yardage, ensuring you make the most of your chosen yarn. The gauge can also be adjusted, making this shawl suitable for various knitting skill levels and personal preferences.
Whether you're looking for a cozy accessory to keep you warm or a beautiful gift for a loved one, the Ohia Shawl is a fantastic project that highlights the beauty of nature through knitting. Embrace the artistry of this shawl and create a stunning piece that captures the essence of the ??hi?a lehua tree!
