Fir Rib Shawl

*This shawl is knitted with one strand of DK weight wool held together with one strand of lace weight mohair silk. The sideways triangle begins at the small corner with an I-cord cast on. The I-cord continues to frame ribbed columns with dip stitches, twisted stitches, and cables. Four skeins of DK weight wool like West Wool Tandem combined with four matching balls of West Wool Glowhair will create a large size. You can easily customize the size by simply binding off early for a smaller shawl or knit more pattern repeats if you have more yarn to create a larger size.* **Sizes** One Size The size is easy to customize by starting the border rows earlier for a shorter shawl. **Finished Measurements** 78″ / 198cm wingspan length, 37″ / 94cm at center point. Measurements taken after blocking. **Yarn** DK weight held together with lace weight mohair silk **Yardage** 910yds / 832m of each strand of yarn **Shown in** West Wool Tandem (100% South American Merino Wool; 254yds / 233m per 100g skein) West Wool Glowhair (64% Mohair, 36% Mulberry Silk; 229yds / 210m per 25g ball) Colorway - Pickle Juice **Needles** US 7 / 4.5mm circular in 40″ / 100cm length or size needed to obtain gauge **Notions** Cable needle, tapestry needle **Gauge** 19 sts & 24 rows = 4″ / 10cm in pattern after blocking Gauge is not crucial for this project so long as you achieve a fabric that feels good to you. If you want to swatch, I recommend casting on the shawl and knitting to Row 78 because the project begins small at the corner tip. **Westknits Workshops** Venture into the world of Westknits with my series of online workshops.
