Falbaladesjalet - mystery-knit-along project ‘23

The shawl is a traditional triangular shawl where you start at the neck by casting on 6 sts. You finish by closing off with triangles.
The pattern is divided into 5 sections, each with its own pattern. You will be challenged, but you will also receive a lot of help from knitting videos.

I have also created a group on Facebook where you can show off your progress and ask questions. You can find it right here.

Yarn and color selection: I recommend knitting the shawl either in “Geilsk Tynd uld” or in “Geilsk Bomuld og uld”. You will need approximately 850m yarn. The design uses 3 colors, with the lightest color first and the darkest color at the bottom. You can also knit the shawl in a solid color, in which case you will need 3 skeins of thin wool, or 4 skeins of cotton and wool.
