Scarlet Ibis
Introducing our exquisite shawl pattern, inspired by the stunning plumage of the Scarlet Ibis. This glorious shawl features a beautifully intricate feathered lace section, gracefully edged with a delicate mesh of garter lace, making it a perfect addition to any knitwear collection.
Our thoughtfully designed shawl comes in two sizes, including a wide, wing-shaped full shawl that offers generous coverage and style. Its ample width ensures that it can be effortlessly worn with the point at the front or back, while long, flowing ends provide the perfect wrap to keep the shawl securely in place throughout the day. The construction begins with a provisional cast-on followed by a garter wedge, featuring innovative short-row shaping. After crafting the left "wing" tip, provisional stitches are then replaced to create the shawl's stunning right "wing" side.
For those who prefer a smaller accessory, we also offer an asymmetric triangular shawlette, designed as the first half of the full shawl. This chic shawlette is meant to be worn with the point at the front and can be elegantly secured with buttons around the neck, making it a versatile piece for any wardrobe.
Enjoy the convenience of both charted and fully written instructions with your purchase! Each pattern is bundled into a comprehensive document that contains both formats—simply print pages 1-12 for written instructions or pages 1-3 and 13-21 for charted visuals. If you wish to explore both options, we recommend printing the entire document for your reference.
This mountain of knitting delight is suitable for intermediate to expert knitters—or advanced beginners ready to elevate their skills and tackle new challenges. Whether you are creating the full shawl or the elegant shawlette, our pattern promises to be an enjoyable and fulfilling project.
