This is a “weighted” shawl used to calm a child/toddler with autism in stressful or overwhelming situations like a weighted blanket, but not as heavy or as large and easier to carry around. The size can be adjusted to fit anyone really by adding stitches to the cast on or knitting it longer. I used less than 3 skeins of yarn in this version using material I had in my stash.
