Strawberry Pop Tart
Discover the beauty of asymmetrical shawl knitting with this stunning side-to-side shawl pattern that begins with a cozy garter stitch section—perfect for showcasing your favorite variegated yarn. This unique design allows you to fully enjoy the rich interplay of colors while enjoying the soothing rhythm of garter stitch.
The eye-catching “Pop Stitch” section at the end of the shawl not only offers a delightful knitting experience but also complements solid or semi-solid yarns beautifully. The final result is a stylish accessory that brings a vibrant touch to any outfit.
This shawl is designed with versatility in mind; it’s long enough to wrap comfortably around your neck multiple times for added warmth on chilly days, or you can let it hang loose to provide the perfect “pop” of color, making it an ideal accessory for every season!
For your convenience, both charted and full written instructions are included, making it easy to follow along regardless of your preferred knitting style. This pattern is suitable for knitters of all skill levels looking to explore creative techniques.
Suggested Yarn: For the best results, we recommend using C1: Twisted Owl Fiber Studio Super Sock 4-ply, featuring a luxurious blend of 75% superwash merino wool and 25% nylon in the mesmerizing colorway "Dancing Bears," requiring 1 skein. For a perfect pairing, use C2: the same Twisted Owl Fiber Studio Super Sock in the captivating "Bleeding Heart" colorway, also requiring 1 skein.
Yarn Requirements: This pattern is designed for a light fingering weight yarn, requiring 1 skein of variegated/C1 yarn (the sample used 384 yards) and 1 skein of solid or semi-solid/C2 yarn (the sample used 454 yards). If you prefer to use only one color, you’ll need approximately 900 yards in total. This project not only results in a beautiful finished piece but also makes great use of your yarn stash!
