The weekend got off to a rather mixed start here, with rain and cool temperatures. Perfect weather for knitting. My suggestion for the weekend is to knit a shawl. You can then snuggle up in it the next time the weather’s a bit iffy.

Or how about a crocheted shawl? You'll need sock yarn for this—a light, airy triangular shawl with a charming lace pattern. The yarn needed depends on the size you want.

You can find the pattern here.
