Colours for Diane Shawl
This pattern was originally published in “A Needle Pulling Thread” magazine in its first iteration knit with the glorious colours of Koigu yarn. It is being re-released in conjunction with my Zoom presentation on tips for knitting the garter tab for the Hands On Knitting Center. Workshop participants will receive a code to download this pattern for free until noon tomorrow, July 20 (Pacific Time)
After receiving a bag of beautiful Koigu yarns, I knew I wanted to design a shawl for my colour-loving friend, Diane. But not everyone loves colour as much as she does, so I knit a second shawl in a solid colour, using a different weight of yarn. Specific instructions are included for both versions, as well as notes on substituting other yarns. Gauge listed above shows the tension I used in the DK weight sample.
Skills and Techniques Used:
- garter tab cast-on
- knit and purl stitches
- yo increase
- k2tog decrease
- ssk decrease
- s2kp centered double decrease
- lace bind-off
