Fibrefest Scarf and Shawl Pattern

$9.50

This knitting pattern PDF is for the Fibrefest Scarf and Shawl.
The shawl was designed for the NSW Knitters’ Guild FibreFest Event held in Singleton NSW in October 2019.

When you purchase this knitting pattern you will automatically receive an email containing a link to download a PDF.
If you wish to have the pattern in your Ravelry library please purchase it from Ravelry instead.

Please note that the pattern version available for download here is different to the Ravelry version. The Ravelry version of the pattern allows for customisation of the design and includes instructions on how to make changes. The shawl in purple tones has modifications made based on the Ravelry pattern.

The Fibrefest Shawl and Scarf are worked mostly in garter stitch interspersed with interesting eyelets and openings to create a semi-sculptural effect. Instructions are included for two-colour or five-colour options but you may use any number of colours. There are seven blocks of pattern along the length of the scarf or shawl, with the three blocks at each end mirrored.

The Fibrefest Scarf and Shawl require average to intermediate knitting skills.
