Weyburn Place Shawl

This stunning asymmetric triangular shawl knitting pattern is designed to be worked flat from the bottom point upwards, beginning with just 3 simple stitches. The shawl showcases a delightful combination of an easy-to-follow stitch pattern, a beautiful gradient mini-skein color progression, and eye-catching Latvian braids. To finish off the design, a sophisticated corrugated ribbing technique adds an intricate texture that belies how straightforward this project is to knit.

The shawl’s unique asymmetric increases and frequent color transitions from the mini-skeins create a uniquely dynamic and predictably unpredictable knitting experience. As each row comprises a different number of stitches, the height of each colored stripe varies, contributing to the overall charm of the piece. Note that if your row gauge differs from the stated gauge, the number of rows you complete for each stripe of color may change. Thus, the stripe heights should be considered approximate, allowing for personal interpretation in your final shawl design.

This pattern is crafted with one set of beautifully coordinated gradient mini-skeins paired with a single skein of the main color. However, it’s incredibly versatile! If you have additional yarn on hand, this shawl can easily be adjusted in size to meet your preferences, making it an ideal project for knitters of all experience levels.
