The Simple Yet Effective Shawl by Laura Chau is an excellent accent to any outfit and a wonderful introduction to shawl knitting! It’s knit in Noro sock weight yarn in a fun striping pattern, but it would be great knit out of any sock yarns you have laying about, especially handpaints and striping yarns. It uses just one 100-g ball of fingering weight yarn – but is also adaptable to any yarn weight you like!
