Sunday Morning Shawl

What could be nicer than a delicious
breakfast on a lazy Sunday morning?
Coffee, fresh bread and the
newspaper, a warm and cosy shawl
on your shoulders?

Materials:
The shawl is a perfect stashbuster. Use all your sockyarn leftovers. I combined the sockyarn with a
thin black lace yarn, so the shawl is still colorful, but not to flashy.

(My shawl is made of 150g Kauni lace in black and 250g sockyarn leftovers.)

Gauge:
Is not important, you knit with needlesize suiting your yarn as long as you reach the desired size of
the shawl.

Abbreviations:
K = knit
yo = yarn over
M3 = *k1, f/b, k1* in one stitch

Color change:
When using the next ball of yarn, just knit about 10 stitches with the old and the new yarn together
and cut off ends later.

Shawl:
Cast on 3 sts and place a marker in the center stitch (you will not need the marke any more, when
the pattern is established)
