If you’re in search of the perfect knitting project that combines simple stitches with a splash of creativity, look no further than this stunning shawl pattern! This beautifully crafted shawl effortlessly balances interest and mindlessness, making it an ideal meditative knit for both beginners and seasoned knitters alike.
The shawl begins with a charming striped triangle knitted on the bias, featuring cleverly placed increases along one edge. Short rows create beautiful wrapped stitches along the opposite edge, giving your project dimension and texture. Once the base triangle is skillfully completed, you’ll pick up the wrapped stitches to work the remaining rows downward, seamlessly maintaining the established striped pattern on one half while introducing eye-catching eyelets to the other half. This unique construction gives the illusion that the eyelet portion is inset into the striped section at a captivating angle, making it a truly standout piece in your collection.
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
One of the highlights of this shawl is its impressive span of 86 inches and a height at the center of 22 inches, ensuring it will provide ample coverage and warmth for any occasion.
GAUGE
Achieve the desirable drape and texture with a gauge of 19 stitches and 44 rows equaling 4 inches in garter stitch, making it easy to adjust your tension as needed.
