Wrap Me Up Shawl

 

Noro Silk Garden, 45% Silk, 45% Mohair, 10% Wool

I love this yarn! It is so soft and lightweight, like a whisper, yet warm and cuddly. This is a shawl you could easily make yourself and enjoy wearing all fall and winter. 

Here's the pattern:

With this yarn, I recommend size 4.5mm needles or US 7. Four skeins is all you will need of Silk Garden, or around 450 yards of a light worsted or DK yarn.

Cast on 3 stitches, 

Row 1 K

Row 2 P

Row 3 K 1, kfb.  On the last stitch S1 with yarn in front as if to purl 

Row 4, (wrong side) K to last stitch, S1 with yarn in front as if to purl. This row creates a ridge. You now have four stitches.

Repeat these four rows, increasing every third row and keeping the edge stitching.

When half the yarn is used up, it is time to decrease.

On Row 3, instead of kfb, you will k2tog, and continue decreasing every third row until the last three stitches remain, bind off. Simple!
