Peacock at the Beach Shawl
Discover the creative possibilities with our stunning shawl-striping yarn by Gaugedyeworks! After my delightful experience knitting a top-down triangular shawl, I couldn’t help but experiment with different shawl designs. What if I broke the mold and ventured beyond the triangular shape? That’s when I created "Peacock at the Beach," the first shawl in an exciting series that showcases the incredible versatility of Gaugedyeworks yarn. This pattern is thoughtfully crafted to include both written instructions and easy-to-follow charts. For those seeking a simplified version, we've also included a design without a border, making it perfect for utilizing just one XL skein of the vibrant Shawl Stripes yarn. This gorgeous shawl is not just a feast for the eyes; it's also meticulously tech edited by cupani and has been thoroughly tested by our talented community members, including dancerdawnky42, Gurimall, KnitterScarlet, and pinhappy.
Size: 96 cm [37.75”] in diameter
Gauge: 22 sts = 10 cm in garter stitch after blocking (Note: While gauge is not critical for this project, it will impact the final size of the finished object and total yarn usage.)
Skills Needed:
To successfully complete this shawl, you will need to know Emily Ocker’s Cast On (detailed in Techniques on pages 6-7) and have basic skills in simple lace knitting. This pattern is perfect for knitters who are ready to expand their shawl repertoire and explore new shapes using luxurious yarn. Embrace your creativity and let "Peacock at the Beach" inspire your next knitting project!
