Dancing Dices Triangle Shawl

3,50 

The Dancing Dices triangle shawl is a simple, symmetrical triangle shawl featuring regular increases on both edges and along the center. The shawl’s checkered pattern uses only knits and purls, making it an ideal project for beginners. Also, the knitting pattern has both written instructions that you can follow step by step, as well as charts, for those who prefer to knit following charts.

The techniques used in this pattern are :

  • garter stitch cast-on (see video tutorial)
  • increases with yarn overs : also detailed instructions given in introduction

This versatile pattern works well with many yarn types—from warmer blends like wool, alpaca, or baby yak to lighter options like cotton. The model measures 220 x 85 cm (87 x 33”), and you can easily customize the size by adjusting the length of pattern blocks to suit your preference.

The gauge and needle size used for this pattern are only an indication and don’t need to fit perfectly. Just make sure that the yarn you have chosen works well with the checkered pattern, and preferably swatch the yarn beforehand in order to adjust the needle size, if needed, for the best outcome. You will see indications for both sport weight and fingering weight yarn yardage needed above, and you can of course adapt the size of your Dancing Dices triangle shawl by either adding pattern blocks or reducing them.
