Star-Gazing
Star-Gazing is a triangular shawl with a curved top edge. It plays with three different colours alternating and features a textured star-stitch pattern.
The shawl is fun to make and knits up quickly!
You‘ll start knitting with just a few stitches at the right tip, then work your way across to the left edge; you can make the shawl as small or large as you like or your yarn allows.
You can use any fingering to aran weight yarn. Choose three contrasting solid/semisolid colours, allow approx. 300m/330yds for the main colour and 200m/220yds for each contrast colour to get the given size; the pattern is easily adjustable to the yardage you have.
The pattern contains written as well as charted instructions and a photo-tutorial explains how to work the lovely textured star-stitch.
Finished measurements and yarn used for sample:
length along top edge: 194cm/76.4”
depth: 60cm/23.6”
Malabrigo Rios (worsted weight, 100g=192m/210yd) on 5.5mm/US9 needles,
1.5 skeins in Natural and 1 skein each in English Rose & Sunset
I hope you’ll enjoy the pattern ☺
Thanks so much for testing and for making such fabulous knits :
