Tircha Shawl Recipe

Introducing Tircha, which means "angled" or "biased" in Hindi—a versatile and total stash buster scarf/shawl pattern perfect for knitters of all skill levels! This adaptable design allows you to use any weight of yarn at any gauge straight from your personal stash, giving you the freedom to create either a cozy scarf or an expansive shawl depending on your available yardage. With the option to incorporate 1, 2, 3, or even more colors, the creative possibilities are endless!

The sample showcased in the picture features 1 hank of our Cozy Shawl yarn base in the stunning Satrangi colorway, combined with a partial hank of Knit Picks’ hand-dyed Shimmer lace yarn in the lovely Sherry colorway, held double for a beautiful texture.

You can easily customize your Tircha shawl by experimenting with stripe patterns or utilizing your own unique color-blocking techniques. For those looking to add an extra touch of creativity, consider inserting stitch patterns to design a truly one-of-a-kind piece that embodies your personal style.

This fingering weight sample measures an impressive 82 inches along its longest side and 17 inches deep, utilizing a total of 174 grams of yarn, which includes 100g of fingering weight and 74g of lace weight yarn held double. Whether you’re looking to clear out your yarn stash or create a meaningful handmade gift, the Tircha shawl is the ideal project that offers flexibility and beauty in every stitch.
