What is Being Made
Where you Lead… is a triangular knit shawl designed by independent designer Jessica Anderson, inspired by the beloved television series Gilmore Girls. This shawl pattern creates a finished piece measuring approximately 90 inches across the wingspan and 30 inches deep after washing and blocking. The design is versatile enough to be worn by anyone and makes an ideal gift for fellow fans of the show. A matching cowlette pattern titled "I Will Follow" is also available to complement this shawl.
Techniques and Stitches
This knit shawl features a memorable and easy-to-memorize pattern stitch that creates beautiful visual movement across the fabric. The design incorporates a sturdy cable that anchors the stitch pattern and provides structural integrity to the piece. The cable work is particularly notable because the pattern offers an excellent opportunity to practice and learn cabling without a cable needle, making it an educational project for knitters of all levels. The stitches flow across the yarn's natural variation, creating their own spectacular movement while the cable keeps everything in place.
