Craft your own stunning shawl using a circular needle sized 3.5 mm. This cozy shawl is not just a beautiful accessory; it’s functional too, perfect for those chilly days when you want to stay warm and stylish.
Materials Needed:
- **Main Color (MC):** Heritage Hand Painted Sock Yarn from Cascade (color # 9883), approximately 300 grams. We recommend purchasing an extra skein of the main color to avoid running short during your project.
- **Contrast Color (CC):** Heritage Sock Yarn (color # 5618), about 50 grams, or feel free to select your own colors to personalize your shawl!
Finished Dimensions: Once blocked, the shawl measures approximately 95” (240 cm) in width and 39” (99 cm) from the bottom point to the neck edge. This generous size makes it perfect for wrapping around yourself on cold days or draping over your shoulders for an elegant look.
The shawl is primarily worked in Garter Stitch, providing a squishy texture that enhances its cozy feel. After completing the main body of the shawl, you will create the stunning Lace Edge by picking up 575 stitches from the first row, adding a delicate finish that elevates the overall design. This combination of stitches not only makes the shawl visually appealing but also highlights your knitting skills.
