Drifting Diamonds Shawl
If you add 4 of my designs to your cart, the least expensive one will be free ~ enjoy!
Diamonds float across a field of stripes in this top-down triangular shawl. All of the pretty details — dotted lines and diamonds, tidy I-cord selvedges and a faux rib edging — are created using simple slipped stitches, meaning that you’ll only use one color on any given row. It’s beautiful and a pleasure to knit!
Instructions are fully written, with an optional chart.
If a parallelogram shape interests you, the Drifting Diamonds wrap is available here.
Measurements
Wingspan: 74”/188 cm
Depth: 32”/81.5 cm
Instructions for increasing the shawl size are included. Please note that this change significantly increases the amount of yarn required.
Gauge
17 Stitches and 36 rows = 4”/10 cm square in garter stitch on US 5/3.75 mm needle, blocked.
Gauge is not crucial for this project, but will affect yardage and finished size if different from above.
