Inspired by the spindly evergreen trees and mossy paths around my home in the Pacific Northwest, Wellerman is a super cozy shawl perfect for wrapping yourself up in when the weather turns chilly.
This elongated triangle shaped shawl is knit from the bottom up, which I love because the rows get shorter as you go! Wellerman is shown here in 2 sizes, large and medium, which are achieved simply by using different yarn weights and needle sizes. The large size is massive for maximum coziness, and the medium is a more modest size that is great for daily layering.

I was inspired by the sea shanty, Wellerman, that went viral on TikTok this past winter. It made me think of irish fisherman sweaters, and capturing that look in a shawl!

The large sample (white) is knit in Hudson + West Forge, a gorgeous, rustic worsted weight Merino Corriedale blend.

The medium sample (black) is knit from my stash, but a comperable substitute I recommend is Cloudborn Highland Sport.

A note that this pattern is charted only, but I have created a separate file with the written instructions of the charts for those who prefer that, you can find them along with larger versions of each chart in your Ravelry library after purchasing.
