Urquhart Castle

Beside the deep and foreboding waters of Loch Ness, nestled amidst breathtaking scenery, sits the ruins of Urquhart Castle. This iconic location inspired our Urquhart Castle Shawl knitting pattern, capturing the beauty and mystery of the highlands. Much like storming a castle with courage and creativity, the hardest part of this shawl is the beginning, as it is ingeniously worked from the outside in. The shawl features an exquisite thistle border, a delicate shadow cable band, and a beautifully airy mesh center that showcases your knitting skills.

The Urquhart Castle Shawl is versatile, coming in three distinct shapes: triangle, three-quarter square, and square. The triangle and three-quarter square options are available in small, medium, and large sizes, offering a perfect fit for everyone. The square shawl, worked entirely in the round, is available in medium, large, and X-large sizes, providing ample choices for your knitting adventure. For added flexibility, you can easily modify the size of your shawl by changing the yarn weight, adjusting the needle size, and/or altering the gauge.

Whether you're an experienced knitter or a passionate beginner, this pattern offers a rewarding challenge, blending traditional elements with modern design. Dive into your next knitting project with the Urquhart Castle Shawl pattern and bring a touch of Scottish heritage into your wardrobe!
