This shawl is lovely and feminine. It is economical as well as it requires very
little yarn. A single skein of boucle or slightly thicker yarn will make an
entire shawl. Because of the very loose knit, this shawl can either be long and
thin or short and wide when completed. I usually advise my recipients to hold
shawl vertically by the short ends before wearing like a shawl or by the long
dimension if they want a small afghan/lap robe. Finally, this shawl can be made
in only a couple hours.
Using a bulky yarn, cast on 33 stitches onto size 35 knitting needles. Like the
standard shawl pattern, work in K3, P3 across each row until shawl is “hug
length” (or the length of your outstretched arms).
The shawl in the pictures was made using 1 skein of a boucle in a natural color.
