Can’t figure out what to knit with that single skein of sock yarn in a variegated colorway that you’ve had in your stash for months? Here’s the answer!
The Reyna Shawl by Noora Backlund was specifically designed to work with the variegation of colors, instead of getting obscured underneath the color changes. One skein of fingering weight yarn is enough to complete a shawl, and the pattern is easy to modify to compensate for slight variations in yardage.
This pattern does not have a specific gauge, as there is no one catch-all gauge for this shawl. Use needles that gives you a fabric that you like - you’ll want the fabric to drape, but not be seethrough-airy, adjust needle size if necessary. Change the number of garter and mesh section rows to alter size if necessary.
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS:
58 inches along top edge (longest edge), 21½ inches from middle of top edge to center tip (Blocked).
