Sunny Grey Skies
Introducing the perfect shawl pattern for when the sun and clouds are in a playful dance, and you crave something soft and cozy around your neck and shoulders. This beautifully designed shawl, featuring an intricate lace border, is destined to become your new favorite accessory. The construction begins with the lace border, where stitches are skillfully picked up and worked inward toward the center. As you progress, you’ll experience a delightful momentum—gaining speed as the number of stitches per row decreases, making each stitch a joy to knit.
Once completed, this shawl boasts stunning finished measurements of 49 inches (124.5 cm) across and 18 inches (46 cm) deep after blocking, making it the perfect size for draping elegantly over your shoulders or wrapping snugly around your neck.
**Materials Needed**
- 36” US 6 (4.00mm) Circular needles (or size to obtain gauge)
- 500 yards of sock or fingering weight yarn in Color B
- 300 yards of sock or fingering weight yarn in Color A

**Gauge:** 6 stitches x 7.5 rows = 1 inch in stockinette stitch
To ensure the best results when crafting this shawl, pay special attention to the border stitches. On the wrong side (WS) rows, when you’re working with the two yarn overs (yo's), simply purl the first one as usual and purl the second one through the back loop. This technique adds depth and texture to your shawl, enhancing its overall beauty.
Perfect for both beginners and seasoned knitters, this shawl pattern provides a satisfying knitting experience with stunning results! Embrace your creativity and add this charming shawl to your collection today, whether you're looking for a thoughtful gift or a stylish accessory for yourself.
