Yarn Requirements
You will need 420 yards (385 meters) of fingering weight yarn to create this beautiful shawl. For the project featured here, we used Huckleberry Knits Willow, which combines 80% Blue-Faced Leicester with 20% nylon. Each skein has a generous yardage of 420 yards (385 meters) and weighs 4 ounces (113 grams). The colorway shown is Meadowsweet, a stunning choice that brings the floral theme of the shawl to life.
Needles and Notions
To create this enchanting shawl, you will need US 4 (3.5 mm) circular needles, with a minimum length of 24 inches (60 cm) for optimal knitting ease. Other essential supplies include a yarn needle for weaving in ends, and optionally, 6 stitch markers to help keep track of your progress. Don’t forget blocking supplies to beautifully shape your finished piece!
