Fairies in the Snow

$8.00

• Fingering/sock weight • Simple lace •

Join the forest fairies as they inhabit their wintery world. Each stitch pattern in this crescent-shaped shawl represents one part of the magical scene, so you can envision the ethereal details as you create a delicate shawl that will make you feel like a graceful fairy every time you put it on.

Features:

  • The delicate lace is comprised of “beginner lace”: short repeats, with yarn overs worked only one one side of the fabric, make it easy to keep track and memorize the stitches.

  • The stitch patterns of the shawl allow you to use sophisticated neutrals, soft pastels, or all the brightness: This shawl will showcase the colors you most like to wear.

  • The pattern includes an option at the end to work an additional section of your favorite stitch pattern, with specific instructions for each option.

  • The curving crescent shape drapes gracefully around your shoulders for easy styling.

  • Originally a mystery knitalong, the pattern includes the story that accompanied the sections of the knitalong’s serialized release.

Finished dimensions: Approximately 16"/ 40 cm deep with 96"/ 240 cm long edge, 50"/ 125 cm short edge.

Yarn: You will need two skeins of fingering/ sock yarn. The sample was made with Jilly and Kiddles Fancy Sock in “Bonjour” and “Tour de France.”

Gauge: 22 sts and 28 rows to 4” in stockinette stitch.

Needles: US 7/4.5 mm needles, or size to obtain gauge. This shawl is worked flat. It is possible to work this shawl entirely on straight needles, but using a long circular needle will allow you to spread your work out and see the stitch patterns more clearly as the shawl grows.

Difficulty: Advanced beginner/ intermediate. Detailed instructions are given throughout and pictures of each stitch pattern are included. Frequent stitch counts allow you to make sure you are on track.
