I’m so excited for this issue! Shawls are so versatile and I’m thrilled to share some great options for you.

Some of the reasons I love shawls:
- Shawls keep you warm when the AC is blasting
- Or put them on to take the chill off you when you come inside
- Or cover your shoulders when the sun is burning you up
- Or to transition from day to evening
- Or to dress up an otherwise ordinary outfit
And a few crafting reasons I love shawls:
- Shawls can be a great warm weather project other than socks
- And, you can use an unusual yarn or color combo
- Or have fun embellishing it with beads, Pom poms and tassels
- Or ease into a new technique just on the border.
So much to love about the humble shawl!

I’m always on the lookout for new and unusual ways to tie shawls. You too?
Here are a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing…
btw, i’ve found that most non-knitters call them scarves so don’t be turned off by that!
I hope you got something from these ideas and we’ll see you back on Saturday for the launch!
