Twisted Hearts
I love a challenge. This is my first ever shawl pattern (and third shawl ever knitted), and boy was it a challenge! I had to read and study the basics as well as knitting several types of shapes, before I got stuck with this one. It is a crescent shaped shawl, perfect to wrap around your neck on chilly days. It has my signature hearts, as well as an easily knitted garter stitch section for a fast knit.
To get the perfect hearts, I’ve come up with some new stitches to remove the CC yarn from showing at the decreases. To help you, I’ve as always added a picture tutorial section at the end as well as added a few helpful links.
Good luck and happy knitting!
