Cairngorms Shawl
Gather your DK yarns for the Cairngorms Shawl Mystery Knit A Long!
Join me for a stranded colourwork journey inspired by the Cairngorms woodlands ✨️
We cast on November 4th, and I’ll reveal a new part of the pattern every Wednesday in November, with some special treats along the way!
Yarn
DK weight yarn (around 220-225 meters per 100 grams)
Colour A – background colour 220-240 grams
Colour B – pattern colour 90-130 grams
Hint.. there will be a way to use more yarn if you end up with lots of leftovers
Notes
The Cairngorms shawl is knit flat. You start with a small number of stitches and increase to create a semicircular shape. This shawl design features stranded colourwork on both the knit and purl side.
