Knit Along with Malabrigo: Temperance Shawl Knitting Pattern

February 19, 2021 by Sarah White

I love Malabrigo yarns, and am actually knitting a project with one of them right now.

If you’ve been hoarding a few colors of Malabrigo Sock, or looking for a reason to buy some, you might want to check out the Malabrigo Sock Knitalong, which is not about knitting socks but the lovely Temperance Shawl, which is knit with three colors of sock yarn.

This pretty design is available free on their website or on Ravelry, and the knitalong isn’t actually until April, so you have plenty of time to gather your supplies. Or start stitching now and you’ll be ahead of the game.

The shawl is a big asymmetrical triangle that includes Garter Stitch, eyelets, slipped stitches and more.

It looks like a fun knit regardless of whether you wait for the knitalong, but if you want all the details on that head to the Malabrigo blog.

    You shouldn’t need Facebook, the pattern is on their website and Ravelry and you can participate by sharing on Instagram if you have that.

Make Your Knitting Machine Scarves Better

I feel like it’s been a while since I’ve shared any patterns for our circular knitting machine users. I know these devices aren’t for everyone but even though I much prefer knitting by hand, it is kind of fun to crank things out on these machines.

One of the most common early projects for a circular knitting machine is a scarf. Which makes sense, because it’s just one long tube and you can make it as long as you like.

One problem that comes from knitting scarves on the circular knitting machine, though, is that it can be hard to know how to finish the ends of the tube so that it looks like a finished scarf and not a tube of knitting.

If you’re not a knitter or crocheter, the most basic way to finish a circular knitting machine scarf is just by cinching up the ends and maybe adding a pompom to each end to cover up any hole that might still be visible at the end.

But if you have a little knitting or crochet skill or are willing to learn, there are a lot of different options for closing up the ends of a scarf. And this would also be true if you hand knit a tube scarf!

I recently wrote a post over at Our Daily Craft that includes five different ways to close up the ends of a tube scarf:

  • the simple cinching method mentioned above
  • sewing the stitches together
  • three needle bind off
  • grafting
  • crochet bind off

Grafting is my favorite because I feel like it gives the cleanest, closest to a seamless look. If you’re a knitter you may already know how to do it but even if you don’t it’s not that hard to learn.

Do you knit tube scarves by hand or machine? I’d love to know how you like to finish them!
