Sinead

In Memoriam: Sinead O'Connor

Nothing Compares 2 U

Introducing the elegant Sinead shawl, featuring a stunning and beginner-friendly lace pattern at its core. This delightful wrap is a perfect addition to your knitting repertoire—give it a try! Whether you're a novice or an experienced knitter, the Sinead shawl is sure to become a cherished project.

Size and Variations: The gray Sinead wrap measures 130 x 55 cm, crafted using 100g of Myak Baby Yak Lace yarn (held double), equating to approximately 350 meters per 100g. For those who prefer a more spacious design, the red Sinead wrap is generously sized at 190 x 50 cm, utilizing 150g of Rohrspatz & Wollmeise Twin (which is 510 yards). In our detailed pattern, we have included comprehensive instructions for both versions. If you desire a wider wrap, please refer to the specific recommendations on page 3 of the pattern.

Gauge: Not crucial for this design, allowing you to focus on enjoying the knitting process rather than strict measurements.

Yarn Recommendations: This pattern works beautifully with lace yarn or fingering weight yarn. For the Sinead shawl, I used Myak Baby Yak Lace in the lovely Tibetan Sky colorway (held double) and Rohrspatz & Wollmeise Twin in an eye-catching red (Sanguinella). These yarns not only provide warmth but also give your shawl a luxurious feel.

Needles and Tools: You will need a circular needle size 4 mm or any other size that works well with your chosen yarn. Additionally, gather essential tools such as scissors, a tapestry needle for weaving in ends, and 2 stitch markers to keep track of your pattern.
