Solstice Shawl
SIZE: OS
This captivating knitting pattern features finished measurements of an impressive 66” (167 cm) wingspan and 21” (53 cm) deep, making it a versatile accessory for any wardrobe. Perfect for layering or as a standalone statement piece!
YARN: To create this stunning design, you will need 2 skeins of Classic DK yarn, specifically in the colors Autumn and Indigo. This amounts to approximately 460 yards (2 skeins) of yarn or a comparable DK weight option for a beautiful drape and texture.
NEEDLES: For this project, you'll need US 7 / 4.5 mm circular needles, with a length of 32” or longer. The circular needles help facilitate the creation of the expansive wingspan while keeping your knitting smooth and enjoyable.
GAUGE: Achieving the correct gauge is essential for this pattern! Aim for a gauge of 8 stitches x 8 rows = 2” in garter stitch. I strongly recommend checking your gauge before starting; I used 198g of yarn for this project, and the right gauge will ensure the perfect fit and finish.
With its remarkable design and cozy feel, this project is ideal for knitters looking to enhance their skills while creating a beautiful piece that will impress family and friends. Whether you’re preparing for a chilly day or accessorizing for a night out, this wrap will meet your needs and elevate your outfit!
