Heartfelt Shawl

Make someone a beautiful prayer shawl.

SIZE: One Size
About 25 x 60 in. (63.5 x 152.5 cm)

MATERIALS
• 790-315 Lion Brand Homespun Yarn: Tudor
3 Balls
• Knitting Needles - Size 10 [6 mm]
• Large-Eye Blunt Needles (Set of 6)

GAUGE:
10 stitches = 4 in. (10 cm) in Shawl pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you
match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the
materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you less stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

SHAWL
Cast on 63 stitches.
Row 1: (Knit 3, purl 3) until the last 3 stitches, knit 3.
Row 2: (Purl 3, knit 3) until the last 3 stitches, purl 3.
Repeat these 2 rows until piece measures about 60 in. (152.5 cm). Bind off.

FINISHING
Weave in ends.
