Brioripple Shawl
This pattern launches 7 August 2025 at 16:00 Amsterdam time! Make sure you’re signed up to the Westknits newsletter at www.westknits.com to get special introductory pattern discounts and sneak peeks of new knit alongs and designs,
Gather a colorful collection of fingering weight yarns and lace weight mohair silk to knit this large wavy shlanket. The main portion of the shawl is knit sideways starting with an I-cord tail. Bands of brioche are worked with fingering weight wool as the foreground MC + West Wool Glowhair held double for the background CC. Additional colors of fingering weight wool are used for the short row garter stitch stripes. The pattern includes a video tutorial demonstrating the short row and brioche techniques. Once the main arched shape is knitted, stitches are picked up for a final wavy border. The final shape is epic in scale and very fluid with an ethereal drape thanks to the shimmering mohair silk stripes. Dive into your stash and have fun playing with splashy stripes for your Brioripple Shawl.

Yarn - Fingering weight
The sample features fingering weight for the MC (main color) foreground brioche sections and the AC (accent color) garter stitch short row stripes. Two strands of the same color of lace weight mohair silk are held together for the CC (contrast color) background brioche sections. You can use fingering weight yarns for all the colors or hold two strands of lace weight mohair silk together for the CC& background brioche sections to create a version like the photographed sample.

Shown in
A variety of fingering weight yarns including Life in the Long Grass Singles, Mominoki Sock Fine 4ply, and Twisted Ambitions Sweet Sock 4ply for the MC & AC stripes. West Wool Glowhair is held double for the CC background brioche sections.
West Wool Glowhair (64% Mohair, 36% Mulberry Silk; 229yds / 210m per 25g ball)
MC (main color) = foreground brioche
CC (contrast color) = background brioche
AC (accent color) = garter stitch short row stripes + I-cord CO & BO
8 colors (1 ball each color) of West Wool Glowhair is enough yarn to create the shawl using lace weight mohair held double for the CC’s. Use as many colors as you like to create a scrappy Brioripple Shawl. I used colorways Dutch Sky, Greykjavik, Canal House, Copenhagen, Sand, Biscuit, Mocha, & Dijon for the sample.
