Flowers of Winter is a large triangle shawl knitting pattern. It’s your antidote to grey skies and hectic days.
It walks the perfect line between soothing and engaging—easy to follow, yet interesting enough to hold your attention without turning into a mental workout. Designed for DK-weight yarn, this shawl is warm without weighing you down.
The result? A cosy, timeless wrap that’s calming to knit and effortlessly wearable—perfect for wrapping yourself in when the world feels a bit too loud.
Yarn
Three skeins of baa ram ewe Dovestone DK (100% wool; 230 m / 252 yds per 100 g).
Or approximately 592 m / 647 yds of similar DK-weight yarn.
Needles

Although you work this shawl flat, I recommend using 80 – 100 cm / 32 – 40 inch circular needles to accommodate the growing number of stitches.
