Cobweb Shawl grows

The cobweb shawl is growing very fast - I’m really pleased how quick this is knitting up especially as it’s a gift I only decided to knit at the very last minute and it needs to be finished before the 14th June.

Not only that but I need to complete a pair of socks by then as well as it’s a wedding gift for the bride and the socks will be for the groom - and he has very big feet so they wont be quick socks!


This is the progress as of last night -45 repeats out of 62 needed. Once the body is complete there is then a knitted on border to do all round the edge - I’ve never done a knitted on border so that will be something new to add to my repertoire and much more fun than sewing on 5 metres of border as I have done with baby shawls in the past.

This currently measures 11″ wide and 40″ long, when finished the shawl should be 17″ by 72″. If I’m 2/3 through the repeats I estimate 60″ (unstretched) when complete but there is then a border to add - I’m estimating an inch all round so this will need some serious blocking to get to the final measurements.

I’m toying with the idea of adding beads to the border as I knit, I have some silver ones and some pink ones to choose from. Would love to get everyone’s opinion on whether it needs beads. I’m thinking as it’s a wedding present and I’m hoping the recipient (who is getting married abroad) will be wearing it when dressed up for dinner on summer evenings that it needs a bit of “bling”???

On the other hand, at the moment it weighs nothing - it really is a cobweb - and adding beads may take that away (although they are tiny seed beads)….perhaps the weight of the beads in the border will help it drape????? Help!!!!

    You may add sequins instead o beads. It weight less and it’s a kind bling too. Personally i like it simple.. but you know the person better than me. It looks wonderfull with your yarn very light. Enjoy your melon 1/3 left ;)

    Love the shawl. It’ll look fab when it’s finished. And good luck. You’ll be busy getting all that knititng done but I’m sure you can do it. What lovely wedding presents.

  3. Stephanie Says:

    Lovely shawl! I love the subtle color variation. Personally, I’m against beads - but also I’m against “bling” in general. ;)

  4. Kat Says:

    I don’t mind the concept of bling, but I would be concerned about how the beads will affect the shawl. For instance will the beads across the top long edge weigh the edge down and make it harder to wear nicely. Good yarn has great drape even without the weight. If you wanted to bling up just the short ends that might be an interesting idea, as adding weight there probably will not negatively affect wearability.
