The Fala Shawl by Maia Discoe of Maia Knits features a worsted weight self-striping yarn paired with a solid color, creating striking graphic stacks of stripes. It also has a special decorative cast-on created by Maia, !
These kits include all the yarn you need to knit the shawl, plus a complimentary DIGITAL copy of the pattern that will be sent to you via email.
Both shawl samples are knit up in our favorite affordable superwash worsted wool - two skeins of Universal Yarn's Deluxe Worsted for the main color and one skein of Universal Yarn's new Deluxe Stripes for the contrast color using a US size 9 needle.
It's got a toothy heathered texture reminiscent of non-superwash wools, but it is against-the-skin soft, super squishy, and drapy even as a worsted - perfect for a shawl that feels like a hug! Choose from 2 different curated kit colorways we've put together for you:
A: Oatmeal Heather & Cornucopia Stripe
B: Pulp & Dragonfruit Stripe
You can also purchase , and pair them with two 100g skeins of worsted weight from your stash to create your own shawl colorway!
