Blooming Fuchsia Shawl Knitting Pattern for Sale

Blooming Fuchsia is a triangularish-shaped shawl worked from the bottom up. I named this shawl Blooming Fuchsia because the color of the yarn I used to knit this shawl is inspired by the color of blooming Fuchsia.
Pattern includes charts and written directions, and instructions to calculate the stitch count totals for every row. I also include the number of stitches to cast on and the yardage if you decide to work a different number of repeats.



Technical Editor: Chaitanya Muralidhara

Suggested yarn:
I used Rendezvous Yarn 100% Merino Superwash (Blooming Fuchia color) 1 skein (100g, 490 yards) for 10 repeats (30% before the end, I changed the needle to smaller size because I was afraid running out of yarn. I am glad I did because I only had a few yards left over in the end), so I suggest doing 9 repeats if you are using this yarn.

Yarn Requirement:

Finished Size (10 repeats): 53" wide by 27.5" deep
Needle: 3.5 mm (US 4) and 4.5 mm (US 7) circular needle, 32" or longer.
Notions: stitch markers (optional), size 8 seed beads (optional)
Level: Advanced

FO: Blooming Fuchsia Shawl

Originally I designed this shawl not for Mystery KAL because I thought this is a simple triangle design and nothing new about it. However, I really wanted to do mystery KAL and many people in the forum seemed like the idea. So, in the end I published this pattern as my first Mystery KAL.

Since this is my first Mystery KAL, I was really nervous that people would not like the pattern. There were times I regret my decision to publish this as mystery KAL, but I could not do anything about it anymore.
I was very happy that people seems to like the pattern. There are more than 100 projects in Ravelry. For me this number is good enough and considered this Mystery KAL a successful one.

Since the KAL is over, it’s time to reveal the FO. Tadaaaa!

I love making this shawl and as soon as I finished blocking, I immediately planning to make another one, larger one. Too bad, I couldn’t do it because I was out of yarn at that time. I have the yarn now, but I have already in the middle of other project, so I guess I will do it in the future.



Another thing is that originally I designed this shawl without beads, however, somebody asking whether it is possible to put beads. In the end I added beads on the pattern as an optional.
