A Bit of Good Luck
“A Bit of Good Luck” is an easy to knit shawl / wrap designed for super bulky #6 weight yarn.
This shawl is quick to knit on big needles and would make a lovely gift… to wish a friend or loved one “a bit of good luck”.

DIRECTIONS FOR THREE SHAWL SIZES:
Approximate sizes after blocking…
Small / Petite: 51” long x 13.5” wide (at widest point)
Medium: 55” long x 14” wide
Large: 59” long x 14.5” wide
The pattern includes details on how to increase the length of the shawl by adding rows in the middle (back) portion of the shawl. There’s also details on making the shawl wider and longer.
SKILL LEVEL: Easy
You will need to know how to cast on stitches, knit and purl confidently, increase stitches, decrease stitches, read a row by row knitting pattern, bind off stitches and weave in ends.
ABBREVIATIONS:
M1L = make one stitch left leaning: Click here to see step-by-step tutorial.
K2tog = knit 2 stitches together
Blocking of finished shawl is highly recommended.
SUPER BULKY YARN:
Small / Petite: 200 - 210 yards
Medium: 225 - 240 yards
Large: 255 - 275 yards
This pattern will work well with many super bulky weight yarns.
I used Lion Brand Hometown in the color “Vermont Green” for the green shawl shown in the photos. The pattern will also work well with Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick & Quick, as well as other super bulky yarns.
GAUGE:
Stockinette stitch with US 15 needles: approximately 8.5 stitches & 12 rows = 4”
This pattern uses standard U.S. knitting terms.
Written pattern with row by row instructions.
I’m sorry but I am unable to assist with questions regarding how to adapt this pattern for lighter weight yarn. That would require writing a new pattern!
