The Love of Spiders - SHAWL - Knitting Pattern

The shawl *The Love of Spiders* weaves together friendship, love, and joy for life. Inspired by the children's book series *Charlotte's Web*, it tells a story about growing up and the beauty of goodbyes. Delicate slip stitches and two-color patterns give this project from Sunshine Yarns a unique charm.

Friendship, love, and joy are the words woven into this whimsical shawl. It’s designed in collaboration with Little Skein’s line of knitting kits influenced by children’s novels, and is inspired by Charlotte’s Web, a beautiful story about finding love, growing up, and saying goodbye.

The delicate spiderweb lines are made with slipped stitches, as is the two-color section meant to evoke Charlotte’s 514 children ballooning in the wind. This creates a beautiful stitch pattern without the need to work two strands of yarn at a time.

The shawl is knit down and out from the center of the top edge, with increases at the center and sides. It’s finished with a garter stitch border.

Knit in a brilliantly dyed hue from Sunshine Yarns, it makes a lovely gift for yourself, or to show your gratitude to a loved one. As Charlotte told Wilbur: ’You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing.’
