The Big Chunky One

The Big Chunky One is a beautifully designed top-down, wide triangular shawl that showcases contrasting stripes, an intricate lace border, and a simple yet elegant edge. This shawl is more than just a knitting project; it’s like wrapping yourself in a warm hug, making it the perfect companion for cozying up on the sofa during those long, chilly winter and spring nights.

This knitting pattern is designed to be worked in plush, thick yarn (approximately 80m/100g), featuring two complementary colors that dramatically enhance the visual appeal of the finished piece. You will need more of Yarn B than Yarn A; therefore, for an even number of balls, make sure to order the same quantity of each. If you have an odd number, be sure to order more of Yarn B to maintain the look and feel of the design.

Get creative with your yarn choices! Why not dig into your stash and use those lovely skeins that have been waiting for the right project? You can double, triple, or even mix in a luxurious kidsilk to add extra texture and warmth. Grab your favorite yarns, check your gauge, and knit away! The Big Chunky One is not just a shawl; it’s a wonderfully chunky accessory and can serve as the ultimate stash buster—consider knitting one of each color combination!

PLEASE NOTE: The yarn used for the original Big Chunky One was in a very large skein, so additional yardage will be necessary for edge joining. To be safe and ensure you have enough to complete this stunning piece, we recommend ordering one extra ball of both Yarn A and Yarn B.

Whether you’re a seasoned knitter or a beginner looking for a fun challenge, the Big Chunky One pattern offers a unique blend of style and comfort. Start your knitting journey today and create a statement piece that will keep you warm and stylish throughout the colder months!
