Wing It Shawl

The Wing It Shawl includes instructions for three different shapes: a side-to-side triangular shawl construction that begins on one corner and expands along one edge into a soft point before decreasing to the other corner, a scarf that begins on one corner with a straight section in the middle and decreases to the other corner, and an asymmetrical triangular construction that begins in the left corner and expands in a right angle with increases along the wingspan edge. All three options feature a built-in i-cord edge all the way around, with slip stitch, seed stitch, and garter stitch details. **SIZE** Your Wing It Shawl is customizable to suit your taste. Most people prefer the wingspan to measure between 65-85” / 165-216 cm wide. The wider your shawl’s wingspan, the deeper the shawl will be. See the Schematic on Page 3, and sample photos on Page 4. **YARN** You can knit your shawl in any yarn weight. The yardage will vary depending on the weight of yarn, gauge, and the size of shawl you want. *Sample shown in Ístex Plötulopi Unspun in Ash Heather.* **GAUGE** Gauge will vary depending on the yarn weight and needle size you choose. **SUGGESTED NEEDLES FOR DIFFERENT YARN WEIGHTS** Circular needle, 40” or longer to accommodate stitch count.
