Chisholm: a shawl in eight sections

Get the Chisolm shawl pattern for free!

The alpaca and silk blend of Bluebonnet Hills Alpaca Ranch Yarns Treasures DK weight yarn is so incredibly soft and luxurious that I keep finding myself knitting with it.  As a cool front moves in and it starts to feel like autumn, a soft, cozy shawl is just the thing.  Two colorways play tag throughout eight easy-to-knit sections and soon you'll be wrapped in color and coziness.

This pattern is free and has not been tested.  I've done my best to make the pattern error-free but I'm just a human being.  I will post errata here if/when they are necessary.

The Finfeather showl is a crocheted shawl-cowl hybrid

I love to wear a shawl draped with its center point to the front.  Over the course of a day, however, I will fuss and fidget with the drape, and the ends, and my shawl pin until wearing a beautiful shawl is as much of a distraction to me as it is a fashion statement.  Enter the “showl” – a shawl-cowl hybrid that incorporates the best of both items.  It stays put without a shawl pin and lets you show off your beautiful stitching to its fullest!  It’s sure to become your new favorite accessory!

Ward off the evening chill by draping the Sweetbay poncholette over your shoulders!

Sometimes I find a lovely ribbon yarn and I’m not sure what to do with it.  This pattern has a large stockinette section that lets the ribbon really shine and a sweet leaf border to give a bit of interest. 

Pattern information

The poncholette is knitted flat, then seamed.  If you prefer, skip the seaming and wear it as a wrap.

The stockinette section can be wider or narrower based on your gauge and stitch count.  Cast on the number of stitches that are right for you!  The border pattern is ten stitches wide.

The pattern is fully written out and also includes a chart.

Cooling off, warming up

As the temperatures fall, reach for this cuddly cowl to help ward off the chill.  A delicate leaf motif and an enchanting picot edging make this cowl perfectly fashionable all autumn long!

Pattern information

This cowl is worked flat and the ends are grafted. If you prefer not to graft, you can bind off with a three-needle bind off or, alternatively, you can cast on and bind off normally and seam the ends together.  It’s all up to you!  The pattern is both completely written out and completely charted.
