Royal Pavilion
Introductory offer: On the first weekend of publishing (28th/29th of January 2023) you can purchase Royal Pavilion at a discount of 20% - no coupon code required.
Royal Pavilion is an intricate looking yet relatively easy to knit shawl made with two yarns. It is fully reversible. One side will highlight Yarn A and the other will highlight Yarn B. You need two contrasting yarns: two solids, one solid or semi solid combined with a color gradient, or two color gradients that go well together as a pair but that are distinctive enough to make out the individual modules – all these ensembles will do. Your yarns don’t even have to be of the same weight. You can easily combine different fibers as well. I would recommend to use the thicker yarn as Yarn B, which is used for the “ribs”. The amount of yarn you need will of course depend on the tightness of your knitting and the weight of your yarn. Regardless of the size you will need more of Yarn A as your main yarn and about 1/3 of that amount of Yarn B. I am talking yardage here and not weight, in case you are using different yarn weights.
The size will depend on the amount of modules you want to knit. Royal Pavilion is comprised of two halves and each half consists of two parts - a Waxing Part and a Waning Part. Simply knit the Waxing Part until you have reached half of the desired length and/or until you have used up to 50% of your Yarn A and/or Yarn B. Then continue with the Waning Part. Therefore, you can use any yarn weight and needles you like and knit either a large shawl or a small shawlette.
I prefer to knit a bit tighter with thinner needles and I used 1540y/1400m of the lovely Fifties Fadient “Kronleuchter” by Dibadu as Yarn A combined with 480y/440m Twisted Fifites “Piratengold” by Dibadu as Yarn B for a shawl with the length of 90”/230cm and a depth of 22”/56cm.
I knitted another shawl with 1100y/1000m of Bilum Loli as Yarn A and 550y/500m of Schoppel Wool Finest “Rechtes Licht” as Yarn B for a shawl of 84”/214cm length and 17”/43cm depth.
Royal Pavilion is a modular knit but there is no seaming involved as you will join all the modules as you go. You will find photo tutorials on all the necessary techniques for joining the modules.
The general principle of Royal Pavilion is fairly easy and you won’t have to look at the instructions once you have knitted the first few modules. This makes Royal Pavilion perfect for travelling or knitting in front of the tv.
Happy Knitting
Ursa Major
