Woodlander Shawl
Discover the enchanting Woodlander shawl, a beautifully crafted accessory perfect for any knitting enthusiast. This exquisite piece is designed as a heart-shaped shawl, making it a stylish and contemporary addition to any wardrobe, suitable for women, men, and teens alike.
Knit using the luxurious Miss Babs Tarte yarn in Trillium Reliquum—the name inspired by a perennial flower that thrives in the lush forests of the Southeastern US—this pattern wonderfully captures the essence of nature. The yarn's highly variegated colors create a mesmerizing display, requiring a simple yet effective pattern that highlights the stunning hues Miss Babs is renowned for.
The Woodlander pattern provides detailed written instructions accompanied by helpful picture tutorials. You'll also find a schematic with precise blocking dimensions to ensure your finished piece matches the intended size. With metric measurements included, this pattern is accessible to knitters worldwide. Gauge is not a concern, provided you use the same weight yarn and needle size as specified.
To get started on your Woodlander shawl, gather the following additional materials: a US #4 (3.5 mm) circular needle, preferably 48” (120 cm) in length, four markers, and a tapestry needle. Once blocked, your completed shawl will measure 31 1/2" (80 cm) across, 21 1/2" (54.5 cm) deep, and 36" (91.5 cm) across from end to end, making it a substantial yet lightweight accessory for any occasion.
As a helpful tip, please note that I had 22 yards (20 m) remaining from a 500-yard (457 m) skein of Miss Babs Tarte yarn after completing the shawl. Make sure you have enough yarn to finish your project without any interruptions. Embrace your creativity and bring the beauty of the woods to your knitting with the Woodlander shawl pattern!
