What’s better than shawl knitting in the summer? Nothing! It’s the perfect project to drop in your project bag for road trip drives, relaxing on the beach and nights around the fire at the cottage. Or if your in the heat wave we currently have at Koigu, shawls are great to wear and knit in air conditioning... hopefully if you have it! I’ve rounded up some of my favourite shawl knits right now, if your in need of a new project plan!

Are you planning on joining in on the Casapinka Crown Wools Mystery Knit-Along? Find the kit for sale at Webs Yarn!
