This semi-circular shawl was originally published as the Westknits Mystery Shawl Knit Along in 2021. Choose five contrasting colors of fingering weight yarn and enjoy all of the fun textures throughout this shawl. Stripes, short rows, slip stitches, I-cord loops, bobbles, and welts all contribute to the colorful collage of knitted fabric. The instructions include free video links that visually demonstrate the techniques so you can knit your Shawlography with confidence and enjoy your wearable work of art.

Finished Measurements
70″ / 178cm wingspan length, 24″ / 61cm along center from CO edge to border.
Measurements taken after blocking.

Yarn
Fingering weight

Yardage
Color A - 380yds / 347m

Color C - 380yds / 347m
Color D - 380yds / 347m
Color E - 380yds / 347m

The final shawl used less than the recommended yardage, but I recommend having the recommended yardage above to ensure you don’t run out of any color.

Shown in
Mominoki Sock Fine 4ply (75% Superwash Merino, 25% Nylon; 437yds / 400m per 100g skein)
Color A - Orange Cosmos (orange)
Color B - Kimono (cream with orange speckles)
Color C - Safran (yellow)
Color D - Fir Tree (dark green)
Color E - Kohaku (light green)

Needles
US 4 / 3.5mm in 47″ / 120cm length or size needed to obtain gauge

Notions
6 stitch markers, tapestry needle

Gauge
22 sts & 46 rows = 4″ / 10cm in garter stitch before blocking

Try to get close to the recommended stitch gauge to ensure you don’t run out of yarn. A similar stitch gauge is more important than getting an exact row gauge.
