I love knitting this shawl. So easy with your video and it’s so pretty. Marley Bird you are fantastic and have made me a better knitter. Thank you so much.
It seemed like such a long repeat to remember, then when I began the project it only took a couple refrains and voila! piece of cake! Thank you so much for sharing the pattern. I'm in the process of one for my daughter and then will make another for my daughter in law. I only wish I could find cake yarn here in Athens, Greece. So far, I'm not able to find anywhere so am just using yarn which changes colors fairly fast. Thanks again Marly Bird! Hey, you're also a great instructor! Cheers!
just ran across this video and pattern. I don’ t know why knitting a shawl seemed terrifying to me. However. I bit the bullet and without washing the video I was able to get started and I’m on a roll. this is a very good shawl to challenge even a beginner to understand “short rows” and “yarn overs.” My only down side it the running edge for the colors is a challenge to keep tidy, but as I go along it’s improving. The video, which I watched after I got a good start while reading the free pattern just impressed upon me the “yes, I can and did do this right’"
I just learned about this shawl and can’t wait to make it. I’m a fairly new knitter and I am having a VERY difficult time getting gauge. I am up to a US 7 needle when the pattern calls for a US 3. Even the yarn shows gauge at 26 sts using a size 5 needle. How can you possibly get gauge at 20 sts using a size US 3?
Love your videos! However they make me want to start a new project every few mins or days. There's not enough time to make everything I want to do. I'm a knitting addict now. I really only want to knit, nothing else. Is there knitters anonymous?
Hi marly, I love your crochet and knitting tutorial , mostly I crochet but I know the basic on knitting. Love this shawl and it doesn’t seem difficult and least the way you are teaching it doesn’t. Is there a way to crochet one with the it’s a wrap yarn since there aren’t much projects of crochet with it’s a wrap yarn. I own about three beautiful colors of that yarn . If not this shawl maybe another project. ❤️🌹❤️😘
How do you carry the yarn you’re not using without leaving a big loose loop of yarn along the side? Can you show us how to do that? Love the finished product! Thanks!
I love this shawl and want to make it. I have in my stash finger weight yarn with a long color change, but I'm not sure the colour change is long enough. How long is your colour change so that I can check and see if it would be an appropriate yarn to use. I've been trying to use this yarn in other projects instead of just making socks. I would appreciate your help. Thanks
Does this use pretty much the entire cakes of yarn? Or most? I'm using a different, size 3-light, yarn and a bigger needle. I'm worried that I might need to go get more yarn.
The holes are super small on the sample. If they bother you and you want to do a Japanese short row or a German short row you absolutely can so that :)
@@MarlyBirdWow what a quick reply. Thanking you. Mine has bigger holes I have no idea why. Could you do a short video or if you have one on how to do a different time of short row for this design.
After the kfb I did a wrap and turn = slip the next stitch purl wise bring the yarn in front slip the stitch back and then turn and continue with the pattern
I am a crocheter of 33 years. I just stared to knit about 3 months ago. And I would so much love to do this shawl. But how would I know what row I am on when I put my project down? How would I know where to pick up at?🤔
Do you take the yarn from the middle or from the outside when using both skeins of yarn? It looks like from the picture that the short rows and regular rows start with the same color.
OK, got the start up pattern for a&b. Then it says to loosely bring a up along the edge to work the next stripe. . I haven't worked this yet so I would like to "see" what you mean . Thanks
You showed us how to change colors in the beginning but I would like to know how you pick up the original color if you don’t break it off initially. I don’t know how you don’t create a long strand on the side of your work. Thanks for the help. I think I want to use the yarn you used as an example on your video instead of the yarn that is called for.
This is gorgeous! I bought the yarn today but I do not and did not get size 3 needles. I have been hesitant in the purchase because I am unsure what the measurement for the circular is needed to accommodate the widest stitch area? What would be your recommendation for the length of the needles?
Just curious as to why all the sections have 6 rows except for the set up row for Stripe A? I like to learn how patterns work and wondered why not 6 rows here too?
Just ordered my yarn to make this, but am wondering how it would look in solid colors, as well. I did have one question, though--what is the difference between ItsAWrap and ItsAWrap Rainbow?
the yarn in It's a Wrap transitions abruptly from one color to the next and only has three colors in one ball; however it has more yardage. It's a Wrap Rainbow has a more subtle transition and more colors per ball.
Okay, this may sound like a dumb question, but I just got my It'sAWrap rainbow yarns for the shifting stripes shawl and I have a question about it. The yarn seems to be four strands together in each ball. Do I use all four at the same time? Or just one strand? (I really feel dumb asking this, but I've never worked with yarn this fine before, other than crochet thread, and that is an obvious thing. These four strands are not twisted together, but parallel to each other.) Edit
Not dumb at all :) yes, use all four strands. The yarn is very lightly spun :) make sure as you knit you get all 4 strands so you don’t accidentally split a stitch.
You are an amazing instructor. I love your video tutorials.
Marly Bird is the greatest teacher of Crafts (yarn crafts).
I love knitting this shawl. So easy with your video and it’s so pretty. Marley Bird you are fantastic and have made me a better knitter. Thank you so much.
I love the shawl you have on!
I just learned about this shawl and downloaded the pattern and ordered foggy and couture color ways. I cant wait to knit this one up.

I love your makeup on this video, along with the beautiful shawl.
You are a great teacher

This looks like so much fun. Right now I am knitting an Asymmetrical Shawl but definitely want to try this in the future. thank you!
Great video and the shawl your wearing is beautiful btw
totally agree
You are a wonderful teacher!!!
Marly, you are just lovely! Thank you so much for your video tutorials -- they are incredibly helpful and so appreciated. Stay safe and God bless! :)
I wish I could knit well, so I could make this amazing pattern. Greedings from Greece.

I find this way keeps the edges neat and doesn’t leave large loops along the edge. th-cam.com/video/IQQwBZYijM8/w-d-xo.html

Marly, I love purling (Portuguese style)!!! Can I make this pattern all in purl stitches instead of knit stitches?! Thank you! :-x
Does this use pretty much the entire cakes of yarn? Or most? I'm using a different, size 3-light, yarn and a bigger needle. I'm worried that I might need to go get more yarn.
When we turn the yarn it leaves holes in mine can I do the Japanese Yarn Turn instead or is it suppose to have the holes Thank you
The holes are super small on the sample. If they bother you and you want to do a Japanese short row or a German short row you absolutely can so that :)

Can this pattern be done on a knitting loom? I have tried needles and that just doesn't work well for me
I was thinking the same!
I love your tutorials and I love the intro music more 😊😊😊😊😁😁😁😁
This is a lot of stitches to reach (606). I'm hoping that my 120 cm length circs will accommodate them all?
I am a crocheter of 33 years. I just stared to knit about 3 months ago. And I would so much love to do this shawl. But how would I know what row I am on when I put my project down? How would I know where to pick up at?🤔
Hi Marly, do you think this could be done in a different weight yarn (Red Heart Treasure) I have stash.
Yes.
Thanks
I'm planning to us circular needles for this project. Just wonder how long my cord should be. I 32" and 47"
I prefer longer.
@@MarlyBird Thank you.
Do you take the yarn from the middle or from the outside when using both skeins of yarn? It looks like from the picture that the short rows and regular rows start with the same color.
That is totally up to you. I honestly don’t know how the designer did it. Sorry.
That’s okay! Thanks for responding!!😊
I love, love, love this pattern! Thank you! Can you please post what brand are the needles you're using?
The pattern calls for Susan Bates® Knitting
Needles: 3.25 mm [US 3]
OK, got the start up pattern for a&b. Then it says to loosely bring a up along the edge to work the next stripe. . I haven't worked this yet so I would like to "see" what you mean . Thanks
I just clicked on the link for the free pattern and it says the page isn't available. Is there another place I can get the pattern?
I did find the free pattern link. Here it is. www.yarnspirations.com/red-heart-shifting-stripes-shawl/RHK0126-023949M.html

What kind of bind off would u reccommend for this shawl?
God question. I think a basic bind off works great as long as you don’t make it too tight.
link to free pattern does not work, nor does it show as a pattern on the regular lion brand site

I think I would use at least a 40” or 60” cords.
Is there a crochet pattern similar to this one?
What length of circular needle cord is needed? Thank you!
I got 40 inch just to make sure. But I could see in the pattern the recommended length.
I love this shawl! Could I use one colorway for the whole shawl?
Just curious as to why all the sections have 6 rows except for the set up row for Stripe A? I like to learn how patterns work and wondered why not 6 rows here too?
I honestly don't know, you would have to ask the designer.

Me gustaría que tus vídeos se pudieran escuchar en español?
What's updated about it? Please? Is it in the pattern?
No. The pattern is fine. I had misspoke in the previous video about something so I removed it. That’s all.
