Techniques & Skills Used: The UltiFlex pattern employs fundamental techniques, including longtail cast on (CO), knit stitches, and increasing and decreasing. The pattern is fully written out, ensuring clarity and ease for all knitters. Size: The finished dimensions are approximately 52” in length and 22” in depth, but feel free to customize these measurements to suit your preferences. Yarn: This pattern calls for Miss Babs Hand Dyed Yarn Keira (100% superwash merino wool; 560 yards/512m/225g), as showcased in the stylish Corset colorway. You will need just 1 skein or roughly 560 yards of sport weight yarn, and you can adapt the design to any amount of yarn you have on hand. The sample as written uses most of the skein, demonstrating how well the pattern maximizes yardage.
Other Materials: To complete your UltiFlex shawl, you'll need a US 6/4mm 24” circular needle or a size that matches your gauge. Additionally, consider having a few markers (at least 1, but more if you want to mark repetitions) and a yarn needle on hand for finishing touches. Gauge: Achieve an even tension with a gauge of 20 stitches and 40 rows per 4” in garter stitch after blocking. Perfect your skills while creating a beautiful and functional accessory.
Whether you're looking to knit a thoughtful gift or treat yourself to something cozy, the UltiFlex pattern is your go-to guide for a knitted masterpiece that showcases your creativity. Dive into this rewarding project and elevate your knitting experience today!
