Sugared Berries Shawlette
Pattern One from the Sweet Treats Collection
If you’re like me then you love buying sock yarns for the beautiful colors they comes in and might have accumulated a bit of a stash. Isn’t it just so easy to walk into a yarn shop and buy just a skein of yarn? You know exactly how much will give you a pair of socks and it’s much less monetary commitment than purchasing a sweaters worth of something equally luxurious. Also, if you’re like me, there’s only just so many pairs of socks that one person can knit and find feet to wear. (Yes, I know, that might have been a scandalous statement.) A capelet or shawlette is a beautiful option for that stashed sock yarn that you’ve been planning to knit for, you know, months and years and… maybe you forgot how long.
The Sugared Berries Shawlette is worked side to side. This means you will cast on a small number of stitches and gradually increase until you have reached the specified width/# of repeats before you begin decreasing
toward the opposite side.
Techniques
- Bind off
- Cast on
- Decreases (basic, explained)
- Knit
- Make 1 (with instructions)
- Purl
- Yarn over
