I’m thrilled to introduce you to another design in the Sisterhood series—the Sisterhood Shawl. Like the Sisterhood Cowl, this pattern is a celebration of community.

NOTES
Design & Construction: The Sisterhood Shawl is an asymmetrical triangular shawl featuring an allover textured mosaic stitch pattern. It begins with an i-cord tab cast-on, and increases are worked along one edge. Multiple contrast colors are faded into one another, creating smooth transitions between color-changing yarns. I-cord selvages and a 2-color i-cord bind-off create polished edges.

Yarn: This pattern includes instructions for two yarn weights—worsted and sport—both of which create a similar-sized shawl

Stitch Patterns: This pattern includes both written and charted instructions for stitch patterns, allowing you to follow the method that beset suits your knitting style!

The Version B sample shawl is knit in the colorways Smoke Signals (MC), Big Sky (CC1), Grumpy Birds (CC2), Verba Volant (CC3), and Grumpy Birds (CC4). Note that the two Grumpy Birds skeins came from dye lots produced several years apart. As a result, CC2 leans blue/green, while CC4 leans gray/yellow, giving the appearance of two distinct colorways in the sample shawl.

NEEDLES
Needle A (worsted): US 7 (4.5 mm)
Needle B (sport): US 4 (3.5 mm)

For your chosen needle size, you will need circular needles measuring 40 in. (102 cm). You may also find it helpful to begin with a smaller cord, such as 16 in. (40 cm), and size up as your shawl grows.

Measure gauge knit flat, after blocking.

Version A (worsted): 15.5 sts and 26 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in textured stitch pattern
Version B (sport): 20.5 sts and 40 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in textured stitch pattern
