You'll Need
  • for fully cabled version: approx 440{620, 800} yards / 400{570, 740} meters aran weight yarn (approx 350{500, 650} yards / 320{460, 600} meters in main color yarn, 90{120, 150} yards / 80{110, 140} meters in contrasting edge color yarn)
  • for fully cabled version: size US 10 / 6mm long circular needle (60" is ideal, but 32" or longer will work), or size to get gauge of 3.25 sts per inch / 2.5 cm, in stockinette
  • for simple variation: enough yarn in any weight, mostly in main color, approx 1 skein worth in contrasting edge color yarn (main color estimates — for bulky approx 240{290, 340} yards / 220{265, 310} meters; for worsted approx 310{390, 470} yards / 280{360, 430} meters; for sport approx 340{430, 520} yards / 310{390, 475} meters; for fingering approx 400{510, 620} yards / 370{470, 570} meters)
  • for simple variation: needles sized to match yarn — a long circular (60" is ideal, 32" or longer will work)

This pattern includes 2 versions — the fully cabled shawl, in aran weight yarn, and a simple variation with cables only around the edges, which is for any weight yarn and custom sizable.

This pattern includes photo tutorials for cabling without a cable needle, the shadow wraps short rows method, the provisional cast-on, process photos and diagrams, and detailed notes on sizing, the construction, the cables, etc. All this makes for a lengthy pdf, but the written pattern itself is on 4 photo-less pages, and the charts are all on 2 pages, with an extra page of more detailed cable descriptions if you need them.

All the cable designs are charted, and the edge cables are also written, so you can choose whether or not to use charts if you make the simple shawl.
