Knitting pattern for Save the yarn shawl by Inge-Lis Holst and Katrine Hannibal
You probably know it well - you've finished some lovely knitting projects and have both small and large scraps left over from these projects. Here, is Önling's suggestion for a thick and cozy shawl, knitted with yarn scraps in garter stitches.
The idea is that you play with scraps, colors and color tones to get a lovely and unique multi-colored shawl. The best part is to go on a hunt in the finished shawl for memories of past knitting projects and rediscover them in short and longer stretches within the shawl.
