Silver Rain Shawl

Pattern Info

Discover the elegance of knitting with the Silver Rain Lace Shawl, a truly unique and simple design that is perfect for knitters of all skill levels. This charming lace shawl starts at the center and beautifully works outwards to form a stunning border. Each row features two yarn-over increases, allowing for a delightful combination of stockinette stitch and intricate lace. The lacy border is expertly crafted sideways at the end, adding a sophisticated touch to your finished piece. The sample shawl has been crafted with Lion Brand Shawl in a Cake, showcasing the enchanting colorway: gray sparkle fades. This delightful combination makes the Silver Rain Shawl not only a project to cherish but also a fashion accessory to admire.

Finished Measurements

The completed shawl boasts a generous wingspan of 50” (127cm) and a depth of 17” (43cm), making it an ideal piece to drape around your shoulders or to accessorize your outfit.

Yarn

The pattern utilizes 1 skein of Lion Brand Yarns’ Shawl in a Cake, which is a fingering weight yarn that provides an impressive 481 yards (440 meters) of softness and warmth. The included colorway, gray sparkle fades, lends a beautiful gradient effect that will make your shawl truly special and eye-catching.

Needle Size

To create the Silver Rain Lace Shawl, you'll need a US 6/4mm circular needle (32”/80cm) or a size that allows you to achieve the desired gauge. Additionally, a US 4/3.5mm straight needle and a US 4/3.5mm circular needle (32”/80cm) will be useful for completing this project.

Gauge

For optimal results, ensure you achieve a gauge of 27 stitches and 32 rows per 4” (10cm) in stockinette stitch. This helps to maintain the integrity and final size of your shawl.

Notions

Gather your essential tools for this project, which may include stitch markers (optional), a tapestry needle for weaving in ends, blocking boards and pins to define your lace, and a row counter (optional) to keep track of your progress.
