Knit this: Triangle Garter Stitch Scarf Shawl – Free Pattern

This lovely project was made by Lisa from our Craft Warehouse Design Team. The pattern uses the Garter stitch. We’ve updated this project this season with the Shhh DK Yarn from James Brett. The Shhh Colors are designed to create broad stripes of color as you knit or crochet with a lovely kind of fuzzy effect – like a halo. Each skein contains 5 coordinated colors. It only takes one cake to create this shawl. Each cake has 601 yards! This is an amazing value.

The Shhh Dk yarns knit up very smoothly and could be used for a multitude of projects. The yarn is machine wash and line dry. Acrylic (80%), Superwash Wool (20%)

Skill: Confident Beginner, learn knit, increase and shaping with bind off.
