Using different weight yarns will create completely different looks with this crochet pattern. Worsted weight yarn will give you a warmer wrap for cooler months, while thinner yarns such as fingering and sock will create a light, airy shawl. Self-striping yarns are great as well.

Note: Change hook size and amount of yarn according to yarn weight selected. Smaller weight yarns require smaller hooks and greater yardage. For good sized shawl, purchase 200-400 grams (7-14 oz) of yarn.
