Phryne Fisher's cat's whiskers cape
Introducing a unique variation on the classic triangle shawl: a stunning triangle-crescent shape that will elevate your knitting repertoire! This versatile piece features 4 panels, allowing you the option to wear it as a traditional shawl or transform it into an aesthetically pleasing asymmetrical cape by adding a stylish button border to the top edge. This intriguing design begins with a generous cast-on of 459 stitches—yes, you read that right— and is knitted upwards through a series of rich textured stitches. For those who want to add an enchanting touch, you can incorporate approximately 1400 beads into your project (I recommend using 6/0 beads for the best effect). To best highlight the intricate details and textures of this shawl, I suggest using Miss Babs Yummy Superwash yarn, which is available in a variety of solid or light tonal colors. Shades such as ruby spinel, explore, pewter, and pumpkin are beautiful choices that will showcase your craftsmanship beautifully. Whether you're an experienced knitter looking for your next project or a beginner eager to learn new techniques, this triangle-crescent shawl/cape is the perfect addition to your knitting collection.
