, by . Leave a Comment

There are so many great shawl patterns out there, and a lot of them really up the skill level with multiple stitch patterns, colors and techniques.

Which is great, unless you’re a newer knitters lacking confidence to dive into all those skills in one project.

The Nobomi Shawl from Bigger than Life Knits uses just two colors, stripes and slipped stitches, and only decreases for shaping, so it’s good for a beginner with a bit of experience or someone with more skills who wants a quick and easy project for themselves or for gift knitting.

You can get the pattern on Ravelry for $7.

As a knitter, I have a few tips to share with you when it comes to working with the Eyelet Stitch.

First and foremost, it is important to have a clear understanding of the stitch pattern you will be using. Make sure to read the pattern and familiarize yourself with the instructions before starting.

When working with yarn overs, it’s important to make sure that you are not twisting the yarn when you make the yarn over. This will ensure that the hole created is clean and even.

Pay attention to your tension when working the yarn overs. If your tension is too loose, the holes will be too big, and if it’s too tight, the holes will be too small.

Use a stitch marker to help you keep track of where the eyelets are in your pattern. This will make it easier to identify and make any corrections if needed.

Use a contrasting-colored yarn or thread to weave through the holes of the eyelet stitches after the work is finished. This will help to define the eyelets and make them more visible.

Practice makes perfect! As with any new technique, the more you work with the eyelet stitch, the more comfortable and confident you will become with it.

By following these tips, you’ll be able to create beautiful and neat Eyelet Stitch designs in your knitting projects. Happy Knitting!
