The Grand Opening shawl was designed as an advent-calendar-style countdown BUT you DO NOT need an advent kit to enjoy this pattern.
When I was a kid, I loved opening the little chocolates from the cardboard advent calendar that my mom got us every year. In the anticipation leading up to Christmas, opening something bite-sized each morning gave me a thrill and made every day in December feel more festive. In the spirit of those giddy December mornings, I have designed a new advent-style shawl that gives you the chance to open and knit something festive as we count down to Christmas.
The pattern is broken into 25 manageable sections, so that you can knit one section and use one mini skein every day between December 1st and the 25th. OR, use this pattern as a way to bust through your leftover yarn stash! I have provided a detailed yardage breakdown of each color, so you can stash dive, use up leftover yarn, and create the scrappy shawl of your dreams!
When you purchase this pattern, you will receive the original 25 daily sections AND a complete & condensed version of the pattern. I have also included a CHARTS ONLY version of the pattern and a WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS ONLY version of the pattern.
This shawl is knit seamlessly from the top down. Using a combination of garter stitch, lace, and textured stitches, your needles will never get bored! This shawl has a fun and unusual construction that was specifically designed to optimize the yardage in your mini skeins as the shawl grows.
This Shawl Includes:
- 25 fun-to-open daily sections
- Charts for every section
- Written Instructions for every section
- Video Tutorials
- Coloring Page
- Detailed Construction images
- Full yardage breakdown of every section
