Neck Shawl in Alpaca Yarns Sox 6Ply Description The Neck Shawl is a simple yet elegant project, perfect for keeping warm on chilly days. Designed to be an easy knitting pattern, this shawl is knit in garter stitch, making it accessible for beginners. It is crafted using Alpaca Yarns Sox 6Ply, a soft and warm yarn that adds comfort and style to the finished piece. Finished Size Width: 104 cm Depth: 39 cm Materials Tension 23 stitches to 10 cm in garter stitch, using 3.75mm needles. Needle Sizes 3.75mm circular knitting needle (80 cm cord) Instructions Overview Cast On: Cast on 5 stitches using the 3.75mm circular needle. Shaping: The shawl is worked flat in rows, not in rounds, with increases made by yarn overs (yon/yob) on every right side row. The shawl grows from the center top outwards to the edges. Work Rows: Alternate between right-side and wrong-side rows, following the simple shaping instructions until there are 241 stitches or the ball of yarn is almost used up, leaving enough yarn to cast off. Stitch Patterns Garter Stitch: Every row is knit, creating a textured, squishy fabric that stretches slightly. Finishing Cast Off: Cast off very loosely to allow the shawl to drape nicely. Seaming: There is no seaming required for this project. Blocking: Gently block the shawl to achieve the finished measurements and to open up the stitches.
