To Eyre ...

Discover the charm of the 1800s with our beautifully crafted ruffled garter stitch shawl pattern, available in four stunning variations to suit your style. The first version features an abbreviated shoulder and a gracefully curved back, adorned with a deeper ruffle, perfect for those who appreciate a touch of dramatic elegance (see photos above). The second variation offers a longer design that drapes gently over the shoulder, with a straighter back for a more classic silhouette (as shown in the middle photos). Our third version, *Petite Jane* (featured in the bottom photos), is reminiscent of a wide collar, closely resembling the shawl seen in the film's poignant "Is this how you perceive me?" scene. Finally, we present the fourth version, *Outdoors Eyre* (not pictured), which boasts a larger, more enveloping design, making it ideal for outdoor excursions. All four styles are undeniably sweet and add a touch of vintage elegance to any outfit!

This exquisite shawl pattern is knit seamlessly in one piece from side to side, incorporating short-row garter-stitch ruffles along the bottom edge, as well as short rows that cleverly shape the shoulders and back. Each variation offers a unique way to express your knitting skills while capturing the essence of a bygone era.

Inspired by the shawls worn in the recent film adaptation of *Jane Eyre*, this knitting pattern not only provides beautiful results but also celebrates classic knitting techniques.
