After doing a fair amount of lace knitting recently, I wanted to knit a scarf\/shawl\/wrap based on a painted cloth I found in South Africa several years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs you can see in the photos, there are 2 pieces I've done. The one in 2-ply (laceweight) was knit with 3.25mm needles and measures 25x160cm. The other, which I think represents the actual painted cloth better, was knit with 4-ply (fingering) wool with 3.5mm needles. It measures 35x230cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI used 1 80-gram skein of 2-ply superwash wool for the lace-weight wrap, with a fair amount left over. For the fingering weight shawl I used 2 100-gram skeins, with just a bit left over.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo identical panels are knit and are grafted together using the Kitchener stitch. There are 6 sections to each panel .\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGauge is not important for this pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoveCrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56748540920186,"sku":"UPID38572","price":3.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/4f4c102fd79d24d567931b1a69408a625500e223_UPID38572_172840175917034.jpg?v=1775897107","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-us\/products\/tribal-traces-african-sampler-shawl-knitting-pattern-by-michael-harrigan","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
