Catching a Mermaid Shawl

The "Catching a Mermaid" shawl was released as a Mystery Knitalong (MKAL) in May, 2018.  It is now available as a complete mermaid-themed pattern, with a mermaid story to go along with it.

Dimensions/shape The shawl is a bias triangle, sometimes referred to as kite shape. The finished shawl has a long edge of approximately 55”/140 cm, the second side about 45”/ 115 cm, and the third side about 39”/ 100 cm.

Difficulty level This is an intermediate-level pattern. The stitch patterns are all described row by row, with pictures where helpful. A couple of the stitch patterns involve yarn overs.  With the yarn-over stitches, as with the others, you will find that you catch on very quickly to the pattern and after not too long, you won’t have to look down at the instructions very often.

Yarn selection The shawl calls for about 800 yards of fingering yarn, all in one color or colorway.
