Orenburg warm shawl sampler pattern and description
Sample patters include edge (teeth), millet, several types of diagonals, diamonds, beaded row or beaded diagonal, mouse print, strawberry.
Gauge and yarn is your personal preference at the end. Finer yarn – tighter gauge is a general rule. The shawl blocked will be shorter in the case of finer yarn and larger if the thicker yarn is used.
Making a modern scarf many knitter prefer to work with fingering or sock yarns versus lace yarns.
For sports and DK weight yarn the gauge is 10st x 14 rows in 2’’x2’’ or 2x5cm.
For fingering and sock yarn the gauge is 11st Х 15rows in 2’’x2’’or 5Х5cm
For lace weight yarn the gauge is 12st Х 16rows in 2’’x2’’or 5Х5cm
Needles:
2mm-2.75mm for lace weight yarn
3mm-3.5mm for fingering weight yarn
4mm for sports and DK weight yarn
The base medium shawl (like navy blue on blue sweater) needs 368 yards or 2 skeins of nature spun sports yarn. Extra large shawl can be knit till the yarn ends as long as one likes. I ‘capped’ it as 700yards and about 2.4 m long wrap.
