Striped Ridged Eyelet Shawl

This shawl is very easy to knit up, but the finished piece is just gorgeous! Make two different versions – one for everyday wear, and one in a dressy yarn for special occasions. You can’t have too many shawls!

To make sure you are making the right size for you, measure down from the base of your neck to where you would like the shawl to end. Then select the appropriate size from the Finished Measurements (the longer the center back measurement, the wider the arms). Or, you may just work until the back of the shawl is the length you want it to be.

This shawl is worked from the bottom up.

The eyelet pattern is presented in written format only.
