How to weave a shawl

Shawls have a long history and people have used them since ancient times. As the name suggests, they are a kind of scarf-like ornament draped over the shoulders. In modern times, many people like to use shawls, which are also a symbol of status. Shawls can not only play a good decorative role, but also be used to add coolness in the autumn or spring season. They are also widely used. Many people who are good at finishing work will also weave shawls by themselves. So what is the weaving method of shawls?

If you know how to knit a sweater, then knitting a shawl will be very easy. But if you have never knitted anything before, it will be a bit difficult to learn. Anyway, let's take a look at the ways to knit a shawl. After reading this, if you are interested, you can try to knit one.

The shawl is knitted as follows:

1. Start with 30 stitches (the size depends on your preferred length)

2. Start to knit ~ (the flower pattern is pineapple flower ~ you can search in the forum) Always pick up the first stitch and don’t knit - knit stitch - add 3 stitches inside 1 lower stitch (see pineapple flower knitting method) - knit stitch - add 3 stitches inside 1 lower stitch - knit stitch - knit 4 lower stitches - knit stitch - add 3 stitches inside 1 lower stitch - knit stitch - add 3 stitches inside 1 lower stitch - knit stitch - knit 4 lower stitches - knit stitch - add 3 stitches inside 1 lower stitch - knit stitch - add 3 stitches inside 1 lower stitch - knit stitch - are there 6 stitches left at the end? Knit all lower stitches (count now. There are 42 stitches in total)

3. Knit 4 stitches in the upper row and knit them into the lower stitches (that is, what we call the dumb stitches, both the front and back are knitted into the lower stitches). The positions of the flower patterns are all knitted into the upper stitches.

4. Continue knitting one stitch in the upper row and add 3 stitches to the lower stitch. Then add three stitches to the upper row and knit the three stitches together to form one knit upper stitch!

5. Keep knitting until you reach the length you want. The length I knitted is about 82 cm.

6. Knit a row of stitches from the reverse side. Note that you should reduce the number of stitches to 25 (take mine as an example! You can decide how many stitches to close according to the length of your knitting).

The above is how to knit a shawl. Although it looks complicated, it is still very simple if you follow the steps step by step. For a shawl knitted with wool, you can choose your favorite color and decide the thickness yourself. The key is that the cost is low. If it is well-knitted, it is no uglier than the outside. And if you knit it yourself, you will feel extra warm when wearing it, and you will have a sense of accomplishment in your heart.
