Tulip Chest

Introducing the Tulip Chest Shawl, an exquisite asymmetric triangle shawl designed to captivate knitting enthusiasts of all levels. This stunning shawl features intricate lace work reminiscent of delicate tulips, making it a beautiful and eye-catching accessory. The lace pattern is not only visually appealing but also enjoyable to knit, making this project perfect for both beginners and experienced knitters alike. With lace work featured on right-side rows only, and all wrong-side rows consisting solely of purl stitches, this design simplifies the learning process, allowing new knitters to build their skills confidently. So whether you’re looking for a delightful knitting project for yourself or a quick and thoughtful gift for a loved one, the Tulip Chest Shawl is an ideal choice.

You have the freedom to customize this shawl by repeating the lace pattern as many times as you desire, allowing you to create a unique piece that suits your style. For this project, you will need one skein of Malabrigo Sock yarn, a luxurious 100% Merino wool known for its softness and durability, providing exceptional drape and warmth. Each skein contains approximately 402 m (440 yards) of yarn, and we recommend the colourway Pearl (SW036) for its elegant finish. If you prefer, you can substitute this with any similar Light Fingering weight yarn that meets the same yardage requirements.

For optimal results, use a 4 mm (US 6) circular needle with a length of 100 cm (40 inches) for the shawl, and a 3.5 mm needle for the bind-off section, ensuring a nice, tidy finish. This pattern includes both written and charted instructions, making it accessible and straightforward for knitters who favor either type of guidance. With its charming design and ease of knitting, the Tulip Chest Shawl is not just a project; it's a delightful journey into the world of lace knitting that you won’t want to miss!
