Velvet Moss shawl pattern for one skein of fingering weight yarn

You know you’re a knitter when…

You’ve accumulated quite a stash of single skeins—yarns you couldn’t resist buying because they were simply too beautiful to leave behind, even without a specific project in mind.

Now, those stunning skeins sit there, waiting for the perfect project to bring out their full potential.

Well, my friend, the Velvet Moss shawl is exactly what you need!

This asymmetric triangle shawl features an allover lace pattern that’s not only gorgeous but also a joy to knit.

The lace is worked only on the right side and looks much more complex than it actually is. Plus, there’s no purling involved!

I knitted mine with one skein of Malabrigo Yarn Sock (100% merino wool; 402 m / 440 yds per 100 g).

You’ll need about 402 m / 440 yds of similar fingering weight yarn for a same-sized shawl.

Here’s why Velvet Moss shawl is a must-knit:

  • Intuitive lace: The allover lace is easy to memorise and quickly becomes second nature.
  • Effortless knitting: You work the lace only on the right side rows, and there’s no purling
  • One skein shawl: Perfect for that special skein of fingering weight yarn in your stash.
  • Adjustable size: The size is easy to adjust to different yarn amounts. You can use every last inch of your precious skein. Or gather more yarn and make the shawl as big as you want!

Whether you’re an adventurous lace beginner or a seasoned knitting pro, Velvet Moss is both a relaxing and engaging project.
