Whiskyfied - SHAWL - Knitting Pattern

A touch of whisky and lots of knitting joy!

While knitting Whiskyfied, a special story is woven in – one of luxurious yarn, aged whisky, and a little travel adventure. This asymmetrical triangle shawl delights with lively slipped stitches and stylish stripes.

Sometimes life writes the best stories – and this shawl is the perfect proof! In March 2016, I visited the Edinburgh Yarn Festival and immediately fell in love with a very special yarn: Ysolda’s Blend no. 1. So soft and luxurious that I had to take it with me.

In my suitcase, however, was another treasure: a hand-filled 50-year-old whisky as a gift for my husband. Perhaps the bottle wasn’t sealed as tightly as it should have been… because when I opened my suitcase back in Germany, part of the precious liquid had made friends with my new wool!

Luckily, I love the scent of whisky – and so, while knitting Whiskyfied, I had a very special olfactory companion.

But don’t worry: You don’t need to soak your yarn in whisky! Whiskyfied is an asymmetrical triangle shawl, where slipped stitches zigzag playfully throughout the design – almost as if they’ve had a sip of the fine spirit themselves. Garter Stitch and a few rows of garter-stripe Stockinette-Stitch elements add the perfect finishing touch.
