Materials: To knit this lovely shawl, you will need Dye Dye Done Pure Merino yarn (100% Merino): each skein offers 100g/437 yards (400 meters) or you may opt for any fingering weight yarn that meets the required gauge. You will need a total of 4 different colors, specifically 1 skein in each. For the best results, plan for approximately 240 yards (220 meters) in Color 1 (C1), 240 yards (220 meters) in Color 2 (C2), 275 yards (300 meters) in Color 3 (C3), and about 240 yards (220 meters) in Color 4 (C4). The sample shawl is crafted using the captivating colorway: “Gotyk 1.”

Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 22 stitches and 36 rows per 4 inches (10 cm) in garter stitch after blocking to ensure the best fit. While gauge is not absolutely essential for this project, keep in mind that using a different gauge may alter the actual finished measurements and total yardage needed, potentially impacting your knitting experience.

This crescent-shaped shawl not only serves as a beautiful accessory but also as a wonderful gift for friends and loved ones. It’s suitable for knitters of all levels who are eager to explore the beauty of yarn and enjoy the meditative quality of garter stitch.
