This is a great stash buster! It uses very little yarn and each weight is very quick to make.

To see the finished (blocked) shawl I have hanging in the picture, go here.

This pattern will always be FREE.
I have no intention to charge for it. These were created out of necessity, and I am hoping they will help others with their large projects as well. Enjoy! :)

Required Materials:

  • Any worsted or aran weight yarn

  • scissors

  • tapestry needle

  • eyepins - 1.5 to 2”

  • something to use as your weight (pennies, glass marbles, tiny bags of sand, etc) - I used 10 x 1 cent coins per weight (1 cent coins are no longer in circulation in Canada)
