Introducing the Sia Shawl, a delicate and charming accessory that showcases exquisite fine details. This beautifully crafted shawl features a top-down construction, making it an ideal project for beginners and seasoned knitters alike.
Embrace the magic of spring with Sia – a shawl that captures the essence of romance. I’m head over heels for the shimmering and luxuriously soft yarn, Silken Lace, from the Dublin Dye Company. This yarn, made from a blend of 55% Merino Wool and 45% Silk, not only feels incredible but also adds a stunning shine to your finished piece.
The skills required for this pattern are simple yet essential: you’ll need to know how to knit and purl, perform kfb (knit front and back), ssk (slip, slip, knit), k2tog (knit two together), and yarn over. With these techniques in your toolkit, you'll be able to create the lovely Sia Shawl effortlessly. Sounds easy, right?
Measurements: The finished shawl measures 160 cm (63 inches) in length and 47 cm (18.5 inches) in height, making it a perfect addition to any spring or summer outfit.
Yarn Details: You'll need Silken Lace from Dublin Dye Company, a lace weight yarn that is approximately 100 g with a generous 800 m per skein. This exquisite yarn will bring your Sia Shawl to life with its vibrant colors and luxurious texture.
Other Materials Required: To complete this project, you will need a circular needle (3.25 mm, US 3) with a length of at least 120 cm, five stitch markers, and a tapestry needle for weaving in ends.
In summary, the Sia Shawl is a long, whimsical piece that's not only visually stunning but also very accessible for knitters of all skill levels. With its refined details and delightful yarn, it’s perfect for welcoming the warmth of spring.
