Vigneto shawl

Discover the beauty of Italian craftsmanship with the Vigneto Shawl, where 'vigneto' translates to vineyard. This stunning shawl features a slightly asymmetrical shape and design, making it an elegant addition to any wardrobe while remaining simple to knit. The pattern begins by casting on at one wingtip using a delightful striped texture stitch that mimics rows of grapevines, flowing gracefully to the other wingtip, which culminates in a beautiful leafy lace border. When draped over your shoulders, the enchanting rows of grapevines curve beautifully, blossoming into leaves that add a touch of nature’s elegance.

The Vigneto Shawl is not only visually appealing, but its design also offers versatility in size and yarn usage. Both the striped texture stitch and the lace border patterns can be repeated as many times as desired, allowing for easy adjustments to fit your style and yarn quantity. This feature makes the Vigneto Shawl a perfect knitting project for both beginners and experienced knitters alike.

The stitch patterns for this shawl are charted, ensuring that they are easy to follow, even for those new to chart-reading. The sample shown is blocked to dimensions of 52 inches by 21 inches, utilizing only 370 meters of yarn. For optimal results, any fingering weight wool or wool blend yarn will work beautifully with this pattern. Make sure to achieve a gauge of 20 stitches to 4 inches over stocking stitch, unblocked, to ensure your masterpiece comes out just right.

Embrace the artistic charm of knitting with the Vigneto Shawl pattern, and let your creativity flourish as you craft a stunning accessory that celebrates the spirit of vineyards. Whether you wear it for special occasions or as an everyday wrap, this shawl will surely be a cherished piece in your collection.
