Something For The Weekend
Looking for a simple and fun shawl pattern that you can knit in a weekend? Looking for a stunning shawl that adds a stylish touch to any outfit? Then Something For The Weekend is the knitting pattern for you!
Decreasing segments of stocking stitch are interspersed with sections of a lace eyelet stitch make this triangular shawl pattern ideal for beginners looking for a project with a slight challenge, but is far easier than it looks. And for the seasoned knitter, it’s a great box set companion that can also be put down and picked up easily. Just keep a close eye on your stitch count because it’s a fairly big cast on! Stitch markers are your friend here!
Using 4ply yarn, this relaxing and rhythmic pattern results in a beautiful, textured scarf that looks good on anyone. It’s a small shawl that looks great as a bandana, but it can also be worn over the shoulders on a night out. But however you choose to wear it or whoever you choose to knit this scarf for, you’ll be sure to have a few versions of this pattern in your wardrobe!
