Boho Texture Triangle Shawl by Annie Lupton

What is Being Made

The Boho Texture Triangle is a textured triangular shawl designed by Annie Lupton of Boho Chic Fiber Co. This downloadable knitting pattern offers two size options to accommodate different yarn weights, allowing crafters to create a versatile, everyday shawl with rich visual interest through varied stitch patterns.

Available Sizes and Finished Dimensions

• Fingering Weight Version: 76 inches (193 cm) wingspan x 23 inches (58.5 cm) center depth
• Worsted Weight Version: 104 inches (264 cm) wingspan x 32 inches (81 cm) center depth

Techniques and Stitch Work

The Boho Texture Triangle showcases a sampling of textured knitting techniques that combine to create visual variety throughout the shawl. The pattern features sections worked in knit and purl textured stitches that form the foundation of the design, complemented by slipped stitch sections. This combination of techniques creates multiple distinct pattern sections that work together harmoniously, ensuring the knitter remains engaged throughout the project with changing stitch patterns rather than monotonous repetition.

Yarn and Materials

The pattern is designed in two yarn weight options to suit different preferences and timelines:

• Fingering Weight Version: Brooklyn Tweed Peerie Yarn (100% merino wool, 200 yards per 50 grams)
• Worsted Weight Version: Julie Asselin Nurtured yarn

Both yarn options are natural fiber choices that provide excellent stitch definition for showcasing the textured stitches featured in this design.

Gauge and Needle Requirements

The fingering weight version is worked at a gauge of 24 stitches and 28 rows over a 4-inch (10 cm) stockinette stitch swatch. The pattern specifies that the larger needle should be 2 US sizes larger than the smaller needle when gauge is met, allowing for intentional gauge manipulation to create textural effects within the shawl.

Skill Level

Rated as intermediate difficulty, this pattern is suitable for knitters with foundational skills who are ready to expand their stitch repertoire and work with multiple techniques within a single project.

Design Versatility

The Boho Texture Triangle offers endless color combinations, making it adaptable to various personal styles and wardrobes. The textured stitch patterns work beautifully in solid colors, allowing the dimensional stitchwork to take center stage in the finished shawl.
