Difficulty Level: Easy (featuring garter stitch and simple increases) – perfect for both beginners and experienced knitters looking for a stress-free project.
Yarn: Use Dyemystyle Sock active Superfine yarn, which is 75% Merino wool and 25% nylon, with a yardage of 400m per 100g (or 437 yards per 3.53 ounces). You will need 2 skeins to complete this shawl. Feel free to experiment with any yarn you have on hand that fits the pattern specifications!
Needles: You'll need 4mm/US 6 circular needles, preferably in a longer length to accommodate the wide stitches. The longer, the better to create a comfortable knitting experience!
Notions: A yarn needle is essential for weaving in those pesky ends once your shawl is complete.
Gauge: Aim for a gauge of 17 stitches and 40 rows in garter stitch per 10cm/4in. This consistent gauge will ensure your shawl drapes beautifully.
Size: The finished shawl will measure 290cm (116 inches) along the long edge and 70cm (28 inches) at its widest point. However, feel free to customize the dimensions to suit your preferences and needs, allowing you to create a unique piece that is just right for you.
