Got miniskeins? Maybe an Advent set? Or a lot of leftover odds and ends. Here’s a way to use them up and create your unique shawl – big or small.
(Color pictures coming after the reveal of Twisted & Spun Studio’s 2026 Advent colorway.)
The shawl is worked as a small starting right triangle, and grows by adding stripes onto two sides of the triangle in a pseudo-log cabin style. The width of the stripes is up to the user, and you keep adding stripes until you reach the size you want.
Stripes alternate mesh and garter stitch for interesting texture.
Sample shown is 48” x 120” x 130”, in Twisted & Spun Studio Agave in the 2026 Advent colorway (which is a surprise - hence the b&w pics.)
Fingering weight yarn required:
- 220-440 yds (200-400 m) of main color for starting triangle and edging
- 45-88 yds (40-80 m) each of up to 24 colors for stripes
Skill level: Advanced Beginner - requires basic knit decreases and yarn overs
