Wintermint Shawl
Wintermint Shawl is an exquisite asymmetric triangle shawl designed for knitters who enjoy a blend of simplicity and elegance. This shawl features alternating sections of captivating lace and straightforward texture, making it a wonderful addition to any wardrobe.
The stunning leaf-like lace pattern consists of a rhythmically repeating 8-row repeat that is quick to memorize, allowing you to knit with ease and confidence. With yarnovers and decreases occurring only on the right side of the work, all wrong-side rows consist of relaxing purl-back rows that make for a stress-free knitting experience. As you progress, the lace gradually transitions into a unique textured pattern, where short vertical blips of stockinette stitches elegantly stand out against the reverse-stockinette background, creating visual interest.
This shawl is beautifully framed by built-in i-cord edges, which provide a polished finish, and is completed with an elastic bind-off that allows the scalloped edge to bloom alluringly when blocked. The Wintermint Shawl pattern comes in two versatile sizes, making it suitable for knitters looking for a cozy accessory or a stunning gift for loved ones.
To cater to various skill levels, both written and charted instructions are meticulously provided for all stitch patterns. The pattern is presented using both metric and US terminology, ensuring that you can easily follow along no matter your preferred system.
Gauge: 21 stitches × 27 rows = 10 cm / 4" in the lace pattern, blocked for an ideal fit.
