Twinkle Twinkle Little Shawl

Shawl light, Shawl bright
Stitches knit and purled just right
I wish I may, I wish I might
Wrap you 'round my neck tonight

Twinkle Twinkle Little Shawl

As winter turns to spring and the weather begins to warm, so too should our knitted accessories. My newest knitting pattern - Twinkle Twinkle Little Shawl - is the perfect thing to brighten your day and warm your nights. It's a quick knit using less than one skein of sock yarn, with the instructions primarily in chart form.

  1. Carissa --- You have been so busy! The "zickzack" socks and the spring shawl are very attractive in color and design. You are also becoming a whiz at counted x-stitch. The birth sampler for your pup is intense for a newbie. I surely appreciate seeing your original works and, now, you have also added poetry !

    1. Well, the zickzacks aren't my design and I'd hardly call the above "poetry", but thanks! ;)

  2. Love the poem! I know what I wish...that I could Knit! But I really, really don't need to take on another craft (I know I keep saying that every time you post a beautiful new project)

    1. Indeed, I did not expect it to get this chilly again! We'll see how long it sticks around.

  4. What a beauty! I haven't worn a shawl since my high school prom. Actually I didn't wear it then, either - I carried it into/out of the venue and that was all. But IF I was to wear a shawl these days, this is the kind I would want :)

    1. I typically wear my knitted shawls more like a scarf anyway. Seldom do I actually drape them around my shoulders like a formal shawl.
