The weather where I live has taken a complete nose-dive in the last week. Summer is definitely gone. I feel like I should be sad about it, but I’m just not. I live for these cold, dreary days. No, it might not be “picnics in the park” weather, but it is most definitely “cosy up with your knitting” weather, and I am here for it!

If you too are on the search for those cosy vibes, I have got just the thing for you. Not only is this shawl the ultimate comfort project (plump, woolly yarn and not a purl stitch in sight!) but, once you’ve finished, you’ll have the perfect addition to your autumn/winter wardrobe.

So it’s time to select your palette, pick up your needles, track down the cosiest knitting spot in the house and lose yourself in a soothing sea of garter stitch…
