Page's Cluster Shawl
This stunning fingering weight shawl pattern features two unique "cluster" stitches that will delight both knitters and wearers alike. The intricacy of the cluster stitches adds a three-dimensional effect to the shawl, making it a standout accessory rarely seen in traditional knitting patterns. Additionally, these stitches are beautifully integrated with a Japanese ladder stitch, resulting in a one-of-a-kind, elegant shawl that you'll love to showcase.
The design of this shawl is refreshingly unique, allowing for easy construction without the need for grafting or the Kitchener stitch, making it a great choice for those looking to expand their knitting skills. This pattern is classified as Intermediate, so a prior lace knitting experience is recommended for best results.
Both the border and focal stitch are exclusively charted, offering a visual guide that is straightforward to follow. This means you'll be able to enjoy the creative process without being bogged down by complicated written instructions. Expertly co-designed with and rigorously tested by the talented Page Page Zelasko, this pattern ensures high quality and a satisfying knitting experience.
The sample shawl was crafted using Handmaiden's Casbah yarn, but feel free to use any heavy weight fingering yarn or sport weight yarn from your stash to bring this pattern to life. Flexibility in yarn choice allows you to personalize your shawl to suit your style and comfort.
Lastly, no crochet hooks are required if you choose to forgo the crochet edging, making this pattern accessible to everyone, regardless of your crochet skill level. Whether you're looking for a fun project or a beautiful piece to wear or gift, this unique shawl pattern is the perfect addition to your knitting repertoire!
