Trisha's Shawl

This versatile knitting pattern is specially crafted for my cherished student, Trisha, who is embarking on her knitting journey. It's an excellent beginner-friendly design that not only helps develop new skills but also results in a beautiful finished piece. Initially, Trisha envisioned creating a stylish table runner for her dresser, so the pattern was thoughtfully designed with this purpose in mind. However, as we worked through the project and the warm summer season arrived in Tucson, the table runner effortlessly transformed into a lightweight summer shawl. This unique adaptability allows for one project to serve two distinct purposes! The pattern is crafted in one size, with clear and easy-to-follow directions for those interested in expanding the length to better suit their needs. For this project, you will need 2 skeins of Anne yarn, each providing 371 yards, making it perfect for this creation. Ensure you have a U.S. circular knitting needle (size 10, 32 inches or 6.0 x 80 cm), along with 2 stitch markers, a darning needle for finishing, and some paper and pencil for taking notes or personalizing your design. Whether you are a complete novice or looking to hone your skills, this pattern serves as a delightful introduction to the world of knitting while offering the satisfaction of completing a multifunctional piece. Embrace your creativity and enjoy the process of crafting your very own table runner or summer shawl!
