Snurre

Snurre is a charming Danish word meaning "a spin," and it perfectly captures the essence of the Snurre shawl.

This exquisite shawl is knit in one continuous piece from side to side, incorporating a beautiful lace pattern that adds a touch of sophistication to your project. The pattern provides detailed directions for knitting both a small and a large version of the shawl, accommodating a variety of preferences and styles. The small shawl/scarf measures approximately 170 centimeters in width and 50 centimeters in height, while the large shawl boasts an impressive width of 280 centimeters and a height of 80 to 85 centimeters.

The Snurre shawl pattern is designed for knitters with the ability to navigate lace charts, follow written instructions, and execute basic techniques such as increases and decreases. This pattern is perfect for those looking to expand their knitting skills and create a beautiful, handcrafted piece.

For this project, you'll need a yarn with approximately 300 meters per 100 grams, ensuring your shawl has the perfect drape and texture. The large shawl featured in the pictures is made using the hand-dyed Merino 300 from Chester Wool Company, known for its exquisite quality and vibrant colors.
