Sagitta
Introducing Sagitta, a stunning asymmetric shawl designed specifically for knitters who appreciate the delicate interplay of texture and color. This artistic pattern features alternating lace and garter stitch panels that beautifully showcase a gradient set of mini-skeins set against a single skein of a contrasting color. The clever design includes flowing cables in the garter stitch sections, created through traveling slipped stitches that harmoniously interact with a striped backdrop, adding depth and interest to your project.
For your knitting journey, we recommend using Seven Sisters Arts Meridian yarn, which comes in a generous 463 yards (423 m) per 100 g skein. This incredible yarn blend consists of 75% superwash merino and 25% nylon, ensuring both warmth and durability for your finished shawl.
To knit the Sagitta shawl, you will need one skein of the main color (MC) in Citron, which will require approximately 425 yards (92 g) for the sample piece. Additionally, choose one Meridian Gradient Set in Transitional Metals, which includes six mini skeins, each approximately 150 yards (137 m) and 30 g each for an eye-catching effect.
The finished measurements of this remarkable shawl are 82 inches in wingspan and 18 inches at the deepest point, making it a versatile accessory that can elevate any outfit. Additionally, this pattern includes modifications for those who wish to work with either five mini-skeins or smaller (100-yard) mini-skeins, offering flexibility to suit your knitting stash and preferences.
Whether you're an experienced knitter or a dedicated beginner looking for a new challenge, the Sagitta shawl pattern invites you to create a piece that celebrates color and craftsmanship. Download this knitting pattern now to embark on your next creative adventure!
