Juniper Shawl by Truly Myrtle
What is Being Made
Juniper is a beginner-friendly knitted shawl designed by Truly Myrtle. This downloadable PDF pattern creates a generous triangular wrap with a finished wingspan of approximately 87 inches (221 cm) when blocked and a depth of approximately 39 inches (99 cm). The shawl is worked from side to side, making it an ideal portable project for knitters who enjoy working on their craft while socializing or relaxing.
Design and Construction
Juniper features a striking color-work design that showcases the interplay between three coordinating skeins of yarn. The pattern is intentionally simple, allowing knitters to enjoy blending their favorite shades of semi-solid, gradient, or speckled yarn seamlessly from one to another. This side-to-side construction method creates a natural color progression throughout the finished shawl, making it an engaging project for both experienced and beginner knitters alike.
Knitting Techniques and Stitches
Juniper employs straightforward knitting techniques suitable for beginners while remaining engaging for more experienced crafters. The shawl combines two primary stitch patterns:
- Garter stitch – a simple, textured stitch created by knitting every row, providing structure and a classic appearance
- Easy wavering lace – a gentle lace pattern that adds visual interest and drape without requiring complex lace techniques
These stitches are described as breeze-to-master elements, making Juniper an excellent choice for knitters developing their skills or seeking a relaxing, rhythmic knitting experience.
Yarn and Materials
Juniper is designed to be worked with three skeins of 4-ply fingering-weight yarn. The pattern was tested with Revive Designs yarn, which features a blend of 80% Merino Wool and 20% additional fiber content, providing softness, warmth, and durability. The 4-ply weight allows for beautiful stitch definition while creating a fabric with excellent drape suitable for a shoulder wrap or shawl.
