The perfect Mother’s Day gift, this Clayoquot Island Wrap is a great project for beginner knitters or a versatile template for those looking to add their own creative details. This asymmetrical triangle has an elongated wedge shape that curves gently around the wearer’s neck or shoulders. You can make a pretty kerchief using one precious skein, or a large cozy mantle perfect to keep yourself cozy on breezy evenings at the beach.

This pattern is suitable for any yarn weight from fingering to aran, just use a larger needle size and aim for a gauge that has 4-6 fewer stitches than that indicated on the label. This will ensure a nice drape for your shawl.

This shawl is named for Clayoquot Island Preserve, a rich mosaic of forest, beach and ocean habitats that is open for the public to enjoy only one weekend of the year. If you’re one of the lucky few, bring this shawl with you as an easy layer or bring your work in progress along to knit a few lazy rows in the sunny meadow surrounded by the work of master gardeners.
