Marshmallow Chale

One of the coolest things about We Are Knitters is that they offer knitting kits that comes with yarn, a pattern, and knitting needles. However, I decided to just get the yarn since I am pretty good at figuring out patterns on my own. So, for this review/tutorial I am going to recreate the Trendy Chale, which is one of the kits they offer. However, I am not going to make mine quite as wide since I only ordered 3 skeins instead of 4, which is the number they provide in the kit.

Yarn: 3 skeins The Petite Wool in Marshmallow (or other size 6 yarn approx. 400 yards)

Size 11 knitting needles

1. cast on two
2. turn, knit two
3. turn, add 1 stitch, knit 3
4. turn, knit 3
5. turn, add 1 stitch, knit 4
6. turn knit 4
7. Repeat steps 5 & 6, increasing one stitch each time until you have a total of 71 stitches
8. turn, decrease 1 stitch, knit 69 across
9. turn, knit 70 across
10. Repeat steps 8 & 9 until you have 2 stitches left on your hook
11. cast off
12. cut yarn, weave in tail.

That is it! This is a super simple pattern and gives you good practice for decreasing and increasing stitches. It is also super squishy and warm! If you are interested, I also did a review of the petite wool yarn. I hope you enjoyed reading and happy New Year!
