Ripple Leaf Shawl

Introducing a beautiful knitted shawl featuring delicate drop stitch lace that creates gentle, flowing ripples throughout the design. This shawl offers a truly relaxing and soothing knitting experience, perfect for knitters at any skill level. If you know how to knit, purl, yarn over, knit two stitches together, and pass a slipped stitch over, you can easily create this lovely shawl.

The pattern is thoughtfully provided in both charted and written formats, making it easy to follow regardless of your preferred method. Whether you're a visual learner or prefer detailed instructions, you'll find the guidance you need in this pattern.

This versatile shawl pattern is easily customizable to suit your style and preferences; you can make it wider or narrower, shorter or longer, and adapt its shape to be more square. Keep in mind that altering the dimensions will affect the yarn requirements, so be sure to consider this when choosing your materials.

To knit this stunning shawl, you'll need approximately 800 yards of sock-weight yarn, though the exact amount may vary based on your individual tension — a source of creativity rather than a constraint for this project!

For my version of the shawl, I used my own hand-dyed yarn, made from 100% superwash merino in the tranquil colorway 'Stone.' Each skein boasts 437 yards, and I utilized most of two skeins in my project. Once blocked, my shawl measures approximately 22 inches by 70 inches, but the flexibility of the blocking process allows for adjustments. You can easily block it wider and slightly shorter to achieve your desired look.

Whether you're crafting for yourself or gifting to a loved one, this knitted shawl is sure to be a cherished accessory.
