Four of a Kind is a sweet and simple shawl collection, knitted in relaxing garter stitch and delicate eyelet rows. The shawl is a shallow, crescent shape, knit sideways from tip-to-tip.

Enjoyable and effortless to knit with “no purling,” this little scarf/shawlette is the perfect vacation or carry-along project. The Four of a Kind shawl collection is happy knitting, perfect for socializing and conversation as you knit-along.

Calling for only a single-skein of fingering weight yarn, it makes the most of that precious skein you’ve been saving.

The patterns include stitch counts, and handy tables to help you keep track of completed rows and pattern repeats.

In addition to the four shawls in the collection, there are 2 bonus patterns, Spread Kindness and Random Act of Kindness. Each has a single purl row in the pattern repeat, so they did not qualify for the “no purling” collection, but they are too pretty to leave out.

The Circle of Kindness shawl cuff is a fun, finishing touch to the Kindness shawl. The pattern includes 4 options – 2 are knit flat and 2 are knit in the round.

Brenda’s Tip and Tricks contains information on gauge, correcting errors, blocking, and much more! Learn about Visual Row Tracking – my favourite way to count rows. As an experienced knitting instructor, I share helpful tips, and lots of advice! I hope the tips will pave the way for a pleasurable and “tink-free” knitting experience.

Each pattern includes instructions to modify the crescent shape to a symmetric triangle, or an elongated, rounded triangle. The pattern is easily customizable to the yardage you have available, or your desired size.

For your gifting pleasure, an enclosure card is included. Print and personalize with your name and the name of the lucky recipient. How to Care for your Hand Knits is also included.
