Sour Belts Shawl (Digital Pattern)

Sour Belts is an assigned pooling project that is fun, attention keeping and can be knit in several different weights and sizes. Sour Belts was named by my youngest daughter Gracie, because it reminded her of one of her favorite candies...awe!! Pick your favorite spaced dyed color, grab a happy snack and have fun with Sour Belts!!

😃 Awesome things you’ll need 😃

Fingering, sport, DK, or worsted weight yarn that is spaced dyed to work with assigned pooling. Yarn should be mostly dyed in one color with a small section dyed in a contrasting color or colors. 

• 2 skeins of fingering weight equals a small shawl (purple sample)
• 2 skeins of sport or DK weight equals a cowl sized shawl (grey sample)
• 3 skeins of worsted weight equals a medium sized shawl (blue sample)
• for larger shawls I recommend at least 3 or 4 skeins of your preffered weight

Use the following needles:

• Fingering & Sport: US 5
• DK: US 6
• Worsted: US 8

Finished size is all up to you but here are the sizes of my three samples as an example:

• Grey and pink sample used 2 skeins of worsted weight and measures 45"
• across & is 20" at the widest point.
• Purple sample used 2 skeins of fingering weight yarn and measures 49" across
• and is 38" at the widest point.
• Blue sample used 3 skeins of worsted weight yarn and measures 56" across
• and is 37" at the widest point
