Mare

*The beautifully rounded, winged crescent shape of luscious and generous Mare allows for a lot of styling options. You can wrap, knot and drape her, and she will naturally embrace your shoulders without the aid of a pin. She will look just as good in two tonal colors as in something more contrasting and attention-grabbing.* **CONSTRUCTION** Mare is worked from the top down. First, the inner section is shaped using short rows. After this section is completed, increases are worked at both ends of the shawl. A few carefully placed increase rows ensure the shawl can easily be blocked to a winged, rounded crescent shape. All colorwork is done using the slip-stitch technique, so you will be handling only one strand at all times. **SIZE** Approx. 280 cm / 110.25” wingspan, measured along the top edge, and a depth of 59 cm / 23.25”. **YARN** Fingering weight yarn. MC approx. 750 m / 850 yards. CC approx. 470 m / 510 yards. If you want a smaller shawl you could BO after the second Corn on the Cob pattern section. According to the testers you will need approx. 275 m / 300 yards of the MC and 220 m / 240 yards of the CC. Sample shown in Tukuwool Fingering; 100% wool, 195 m / 213 yds per 50 gr.
