Stoles are typically 20 to 30 inches wide to 68 to 74 inches long. Scarf Scarves are a long and thin piece of cloth that is wrapped or tied around your neck for warmth. Scarves can be casual or formal and everywhere in-between. Size of scarf normally varies from 4 to 16 inches in width and 50 to 80 inches in length. Wrap A wrap is a more recent term and used primarily to describe both stoles and shawls. In the diagram below this measurement is represented by T.
Step 2: There are 5 transition sections so multiply your T measurement by 5. Tx5 Step 3: Subtract Tx5 from your total length. As you knit, use the diagram and measurements to evenly space your transitions. Circular shawls are a bit trickier to figure out than rectangular shawls.
To begin with you will need to know the finished dimensions of your shawl. Usually your pattern will indicate the diameter of the circle, i. Its also possible that it will give the radius, from the center to the edge, instead. If your pattern does not give either of these measurements you will have to calculate the radius by multiplying the row gauge by the number of rounds in the pattern.
We are most concerned with the radius measurement, i. If you have been given the diameter as a measurement in the pattern, simply divide by two to find the radius. A standard Gradiance shawl set includes 6 equal sized skeins. This means that you will want to be able to use the same amount of each yarn, which translates to area of the circle.
You cannot simply knit for the same number of inches for each color, as with the rectangle, because a 6 inch band near the center of the circle will have a smaller area and therefore use less yarn than a 6 inch band near the outer edge.
Now that we know the total area of the shawl, we can divide it by 6 to determine how much area each individual skein should fill. What is the best crochet stitch for a blanket? This crochet stitch gives you a waffle like texture.

Remember, we are knitting a triangle for our example shawl in this little course. A triangle has one long and two shorter sides. We want to decide on the length of the longest side of this triangle today. What do you consider a good size for a triangle shawl and why? Please add your chosen size and your reasons in the comments below!
Join us at knitting. I do not like triangular shawls at all. I prefer crescent an rectangular shawls with the different variations. So, I will wait until you cover those shapes. Is like to make mine rather large for my daughter. Will you be covering half circle shawls at some point?
I love big shawls in which I can wrap up. As this is my first, i am going to let my yarn and how much i have guide me, even if it turns out a childs size… i have grams and gauge on size 4mm needles is 22 sts over 28 rows. The wool is made in Turkey and its Carnival and colour is k red orange black mix I think doing it topdown would be awesome too.
I was going to just keep going until it was big enough? I have decided that I am going to do an Asymmetrical triangle with a Candle Flame motif. I love the Candle Flame Shawl and would love to try this variation. I love big shawls and I love wrapping up warm and cozy during the winter. My favourite old shawl is cm on its long side wing tip to wing tip and falls 90 cm in the back. I would like to duplicate this size to replace the old shawl which is too shabby to wear for anything but feeding the chickens.
I like my shawls on the large size; but, I realize that the design needs to be able to accommodate a smaller size as well. I think I would like to make a poncho, thank you Richard.
