Spring Shawl
Perfect for spring days, this triangular shawl is just enough to keep the chill off.
It is a simple knit using mostly garter stitch, with eyelet rows worked in a complimentary colour. For those of you who do not like purling, there are only 10 purl rows… in the whole shawl!
Knit using just one skein of fingering weight yarn and two 10g minis, this pattern is perfect for one of those treasured skeins you have in your stash. I wanted to make a lightweight shawl, but you could keep knitting to make the shawl larger if you had more yarn.
You could also knit the eyelet stripes in different coloured leftovers, instead of just the one colour as in the photo.
