Lace Bobble Shawl

The Lace Bobble Shawl is a showstopping statement piece measuring approximately 30 cm wide by 196 cm long (11¾ x 77 inches). It is worked in two colours of Stylecraft Life Super Chunky: Berry (2459) as the Main Colour and Parchment (2451) as the Contrast, requiring 2 x 100g balls of Main and 3 x 100g balls of Contrast.

Techniques and Stitches – Lace Bobble Shawl

• Lace panel knitting — the central design features a repeating lace panel worked across 16 stitches, creating an elegant openwork effect through the use of yarn-forward increases and decorative decreases
• Bobble stitch (MB) — make bobble stitches are incorporated into the lace repeat, adding three-dimensional texture and visual interest at regular intervals
• Yarn forward (yfwd) — used to create deliberate eyelets and openwork within the lace pattern
• k3tog (knit three together) — a double decrease used to shape the lace motifs
• sl1, k2tog, psso — a central double decrease that gives the lace its characteristic symmetry
• Stocking stitch and reversed stocking stitch — used in combination to frame the lace panel and provide contrast in texture
• Garter stitch borders — four-stitch garter borders are maintained on each side for a neat, non-curling edge

The tension for this shawl is 16 stitches to 19 cm over the lace panel, and 9½ rows to 10 cm over stocking stitch and reversed stocking stitch, worked on 10 mm (UK 000 / USA 15) knitting needles.

Moss Stitch Scarf

The Moss Stitch Scarf is a generously proportioned accessory measuring approximately 24.5 cm wide by 180 cm long (9¾ x 70¾ inches). It is knitted in a three-colour combination using Stylecraft Life Super Chunky: Guacamole (2714) as Colour A (2 x 100g balls), Spice (2376) as Colour B (1 x 100g ball), and Blue Steel (2713) as Colour C (1 x 100g ball).

Techniques and Stitches – Moss Stitch Scarf

• Moss stitch — the primary stitch pattern, created by alternating knit and purl stitches in a specific sequence that produces a dense, textured, reversible fabric — ideal for a scarf that will be seen from both sides
• Colour striping — the three colours are worked in stripes, adding visual interest and a contemporary, colour-blocked aesthetic
• Circular needle technique — the scarf is worked on a 9 mm (UK 00 / USA 13) 80 cm circular needle, which accommodates the full width of the piece comfortably without the need for seaming
