Pattern Info: Unbroken Circle Cowl by Erika Field
Shearing Day is the second design in a series of original patterns in which Erika pays homage to sheep, shepherds, and the bonds between us. These designs are metaphoric “love letters” to farm yarn and to the animals and people who pour their hearts and souls into producing it for knitters.
Construction: a triangle shawl, begun with a garter tab cast-on, increasing 4 sts on every RS row along a central spine and before the garter border at each edge
Dimensions: wingspan approximately 60” (152.5 cm); depth approximately 27” (68.5 cm)
Yardage Requirements: 750 yards (686 meters) total; 250 yards (228.5 meters) of each of three colors: dark (C1), medium (C2), and light (C3). Sample used 88 grams of C1, 92 grams of C2, and 92 grams of C3, exclusive of swatching. This design maximizes yardage. Save your swatch to unravel if needed. The final Woven Slip Sts section is optional to help manage yardage.
Gauge: Aim for a gauge of 19 sts (+/- half st) across stitch patterns, knit flat, after blocking, in 4” (10 cm). Exact gauge is not crucial but will affect yardage. If you are working out of gauge, you may need to omit the optional Woven Slip Stitch pattern at the bottom of the shawl.
Needle: US7 (4.5 mm), or whatever needle size meets gauge for each stitch pattern, on a minimum 40” (100 cm) cord
Notions: 4 stitch markers, cable needle (optional), tapestry needle
**Please note: Melissa's accidentally included two extra rows of the final Woven Slip Stitch pattern at the bottom of the shawl. The original version of the shawl is a tiny bit smaller and can be completed with the three skeins of Shorn V provided in the kit.
