Length-based estimates from the designer’s comparable single-strand wool/alpaca allowance (100 m per 50 g), rather than a tested substitute quantity. Match the pattern’s washed and blocked gauge and check the fabric before ordering.
Wash and block a swatch before measuring. Match stitch and row gauge and check the fabric; adjust needle size as needed. Round up to complete sale units and allow extra for swatching or changes in length.
Frequently asked questions
Is Sophie Shawl the same size as Sophie Scarf?
No. The shawl measures 170–240 cm from tip to tip, with a centre width of 28–38 cm. It is a separate, larger design.
Do the i-cord edges need to be added afterwards?
No. They are worked at the same time as the garter-stitch shawl.
