The Community Garden Shawl pattern has a center cable section that echoes its garden inspiration, as well as eyelet sections, slipped stitches, and a ruffly edging for a cozy wrap. Knit in fingering-weight yarn, this is a cozy layering piece to ward off a bit of chill on the shoulders or to wear draped around your neck as a neck wrap.
Inspired by a neighborhood community garden in Manhattan, this shawl looks best in a solid color or just slightly variegated, but sometimes a yarn just talks to you, right? I used a very multi-colored green yarn to this once because the color *felt* like a garden . . . and it works for me.
CONSTRUCTION: This shawl uses a garter tab cast-on and then is worked down and out from the top center, with 2 spines of stitches. The 2 side panels include eyelet stitches that are created with yarn overs, with a center panel of a repeating leafy cable pattern that branches out on its fourth one. A border section that includes slipped stitches, more yarnovers, and a ruffled edge finishes off the shawl.
FINISHED SIZE: one size of approximately 35-inch (89 cm) side panels / 34 inches (86 cm) bottom center panel width / 21 inches (53 cm) depth of center panel, but depending on the yarn used and its stretchiness, the size may vary slightly.
GAUGE: Gauge is not crucial to this pattern, but it will affect the yarn usage and how aggressively you may want to block your shawl, so I recommend knitting a gauge swatch: 22 sts / 30 rows = 4" (10 cm) square in stockinette.
DIFFICULTY: Uses yarn overs, increases, decreases, tab cast-on, slipped stitches, cable knitting.
YARN: 2 skeins of 1 color (approx. 780-800 yds / 713-732 m) of fingering-weight (4-ply) yarn.

Recently received the snow white mitts. They are beautiful. Even nicer in real life than the picture. Ordering was easy and I received them quicker than expected. The yarns used are top notch, so soft yet warm and the colors are stunning. Thanks!

Love the lacy effect you captured in the knitting. Perfect for the chilly nights coming our way. And most of all now I have the mitts and hat to match. Awesome! I have my eye on a few more things.

I LOVE this hat! It is and warm and beautifully made. The pattern and color are so pretty and the yarn is soft and silky. I bought the hat a while ago and couldn't wait for the cold weather to start so I could wear it. I'll be back for more in other patterns and colors.
