As the name suggests, Stripes & Peaks Lite incorporates stripes of colour, stripes of texture and the centre panel eyelets create peaks!

This extra long shawl (nearly 11 feet at the largest size) is wonderfully cozy wrapped around your neck with ample length still at the ends. There’s also plenty of length for the elegant look of gently draped over both arms, without having to hold the shawl in place.

The pattern includes three options with overall finished lengths from 315-330cm/ 124-130”, and finished depth from 39-43cm/ 15.5-17”.

Yarn options include two 100g skeins, two 115g skeins or seven 30g skeins. The largest size (two 115g skeins) sample used 111g, 370m/405yds for C1 and 102g, 341m/373yds for C2.

Samples knit using Stitch Noir colourways Tombstone and Rust, and the mini-skein set Vamp.

This patten is adventurous beginner friendly, includes written instructions and row counter charts. Techniques required: knit, purl, knit front and back, yarn over and knit 2 together.

Pattern has been tech edited and test knit.
