Sonoran Nights shawlette

Introducing "Sonoran Nights," a beautifully inspired shawlette that captures the essence of warm evenings in the Sonoran Desert. This stunning colorway was chosen by my 14-year-old, who felt it perfectly embodied the hues of twilight. The shawlette features a striking combination of deep teal and warm burnished gold, which work harmoniously to accentuate the intricate curves and gentle waves that you’ll create as you knit.

This charming piece is crafted using just one skein of superwash fingering weight wool—specifically, a skein of Lion Brand's Sock-ease. You may even have a bit of yarn left over, leaving you with a satisfying project and a little extra for future small accents or swatches!

The construction of the shawlette begins at the top with a clever garter tab that sets the foundation for your knitting journey. As you work downward, the shawl grows gracefully while maintaining a self-edge in garter stitch. You’ll see it start with just 3 stitches and grow to over 250 stitches, ensuring a sense of progression and achievement with each row. Rest assured, the knitting process is engaging, making it a relatively quick project for knitters of all skill levels.

For your convenience, the directions for this stunning shawlette are provided in both written and charted formats, allowing you to choose the method that works best for your style of knitting. Whether you’re gifting it to a loved one or keeping it as a special addition to your own wardrobe, "Sonoran Nights" is sure to be a favorite. Embrace the beauty of this design while adding a touch of elegance to your knitting collection!
