HELP! I want to make a shawl/scarf

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

I have some beautiful (IMO) yarn that I want to make into a shawl/scarf that I can wear on a daily basis.  I dont want a typical winter scarf type thing.  This is chunky yarn.  Would something in a triangle shape work?

I think my yarn is similar to this but a diff color and I have 3 skiens.

Im not much for following patterns but can anyone point me in a direction for a shawl that is quick to make, I'm rather 'fluffy' and cute.  It must be cute...

 

Thanks!

Pretty yarn!  My first thought was a big clapotis- of course on big needles.  But the other two shawls are pretty simple and should show off your yarn pretty well- of course they are both tiny- but would end up much much bigger if you made them on size 10 or 11 needles.  My fav of the two is daybreak.  I have been in a cowl kick lately- so I am going to throw this on out there two- but it would take like only a tiny bit of your yarn.
