Rockpool
Introducing the Rockpool Shawl—a stunning one-skein wonder designed for both fingering weight and lace weight yarns. This beautifully crafted triangular shawl diverges from the traditional feminine aesthetic, offering a chic, geometric, and angular look that will stand out in any knitting collection.
The Rockpool Shawl is expertly constructed from the long edge inward, allowing knitters to delight in the intricate process of creation. The shawl features a unique edging that incorporates lace patterns on both the right and wrong sides, resulting in a remarkable arrowed edge that adds visual interest. Meanwhile, the body of the shawl boasts solid directional lines, creating a striking contrast that will elevate your wardrobe.
Finished Sizes:
The Rockpool Shawl measures 26 (40)” tall by 52 (80)” wide, or 66 (101) cm tall by 132 (202) cm wide when completed, making it the perfect accessory for layering or showcasing in a variety of styles.
Yarn:
For this exquisite shawl, we recommend using Anzula Milky Way (80% Milk Protein, 20% Superwash Merino; 500 yds / 457 m per 100g skein). The pattern calls for 1 (2) skeins, with the stunning shade shown being Slate. This luxurious yarn not only feels amazing but also drapes beautifully, making your shawl a true standout piece.
Knitting Needles:
To craft your Rockpool Shawl, you will need a size US3 / 3.25 mm circular needle. The circular needles allow for comfortable handling of stitches as the project grows, ensuring a pleasurable knitting experience.
Knitting Gauge (Blocked):
Achieve a perfect fit with a gauge of 20 sts = 4” / 10 cm, measured in the Little Waves Chart. Getting the right gauge is essential for ensuring your shawl turns out just as beautiful as intended.
Notions:
In addition to your needles and yarn, gather some essential notions to facilitate your knitting: 2 markers, a cable needle, scissors, and a tapestry needle. Additionally, be sure to have thread or lifeline supplies on hand if you desire them, as they can be helpful for keeping track of your progress.
