Warm Chicago Pocket Shawl

Introducing our intricate and ornately cabled warm pocket shawl pattern, perfect for knitters who love to explore unique designs! This shawl artfully combines a cable pattern inspired by the Shetland Islands with another exquisite cable design from Japan. The result is a stunning pocket shawl that seamlessly melds two very complex cables into a single, elegant piece. The large pockets ensure that your shawl will remain snugly on your shoulders, making it an ideal accessory to keep you warm and stylish on cool spring evenings.

If you have a passion for knitting cables, you’ll absolutely enjoy crafting this shawl using worsted weight yarn. The chosen yarn not only ensures comfort but also provides warmth, making it a perfect choice for your spring wardrobe. The pattern features a detailed schematic that illustrates pocket placement, as well as clear instructions for an optional crocheted edging, giving you the chance to add a personal touch to your creation.

The shawl's two distinctive cable designs are available in charted format only, enhancing your cable-knitting skills. This makes the pattern suitable for intermediate knitters who have a good working knowledge of cabling techniques. The sample for this pattern is knitted using Shepherd Worsted by Lorna’s Laces in its undyed form, but feel free to experiment with any worsted weight yarn that speaks to you.

One of the great features of this pattern is that no crochet hooks are necessary if you choose to skip the optional crocheted edging. This pocket shawl is more than just a fashionable accessory; it's a cozy and warm addition to your collection that you can enjoy wearing for years to come.
