Here are some of our most FAQ’s for Knitted Shawls:

Q: What is a standard size for a knitted shawl?
A: The size of a knitted shawl can vary depending on the pattern and the intended use. Some shawls are designed to be small and lightweight for use as a neck scarf or shoulder wrap, while others are larger and more substantial for use as a full-body shawl or blanket. A typical size range for a shawl might be 60-90 inches wide and 20-40 inches deep.

Q: How do I determine what size shawl to make?
A: The size of your shawl will depend on your personal preferences and the intended use of the shawl. If you’re making a gift, consider the recipient’s body size and style preferences. If you’re making a shawl for yourself, think about how you plan to wear it and in what seasons.

Q: How do I care for my knitted shawl?
A: The care instructions for your knitted shawl will depend on the fiber content of the yarn. Most shawls can be hand-washed or machine-washed on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softener, which can damage the fibers. Lay the shawl flat to dry, taking care not to stretch or distort the fabric.

Q: Can I block my knitted shawl?
A: Yes, blocking is an important step in finishing your shawl. Blocking helps to even out the stitches and open up the lace or cable patterns. To block your shawl, wet it thoroughly and then lay it out flat on a towel or blocking mat. Use pins or blocking wires to shape the shawl to the desired size and shape, and let it dry completely.

Q: What should I do if my shawl develops holes or snags?
A: If your shawl develops holes or snags, you can use a darning needle and matching yarn to repair the damage. Weaving in ends securely is important when working on any project.
