Paz Shoulder Wrap
Discover the ultimate in cozy style with our beautifully crafted shoulder wrap shawl or cowl, featuring intricate thick braided cables and charming open eyelets designed as unique buttonholes. This versatile garment allows you to fasten it multiple ways, creating a chic, asymmetrical piece that adds a touch of elegance to any outfit.
For this stunning knit project, we recommend using Cascade Yarns' new ReVerb, a luxurious 100% recycled alpaca blend. By holding the yarn double, you can easily substitute it for a chunky weight, ensuring your wrap is not only stylish but also warm and soft against your skin.
Crafted side to side, this wrap showcases a breathtaking combination of cable and lace designs, while the addition of simple short rows enhances its fit. Be sure to check out the accompanying photos for visual examples of this beautiful pattern.
The cable pattern is thoughtfully provided in both written and charted formats for your convenience, making it easier for both novice and experienced knitters to follow along. Available in sizes XS/S, S/M, and M/L, the wrap is designed to suit a variety of body types. When blocked, the dimensions for the second size measure 36” (91.5 cm) along the lower edge in length, scaling up to 39” (99 cm) and 42” (106.5 cm) for other sizes, with a height of 10” (25.5 cm) or 13” (33 cm) respectively.
Create your masterpiece using 3 (3, 4) skeins of Cascade Yarns ReVerb, which boasts 273 yards (250 meters) per skein and a beautiful blend of 70% polyester and 30% alpaca. The shawl is shown in the soft and inviting #05 Apricot shade, perfect for any season.
To make this delightful wrap, you’ll need a US 10 (6 mm) 32” (80 cm) circular needle, or a size that achieves the required gauge. You'll also need a cable or spare needle and three 5/8” (16 mm) buttons to complete your look.
In terms of gauge, aim for 14 stitches and 20 rows for every 4” (10 cm) in stockinette, using two strands of yarn held together. This cozy shoulder wrap shawl is more than just a knitting project—it’s an opportunity to create a stunning statement piece that can elevate your wardrobe.
