One ball, one lovely warm shawl! If you like your yarn to go that little bit further, you can’t beat a shawl. However, if the thought of tackling a complex lace pattern in a fine yarn puts you off knitting shawls, try this one by Kirstie McLeod, which uses classic construction techniques, but is worked in DK yarn for an easier knit and a thicker, warmer garment at the end.

I chose Riot DK because it’s designed to knit up into stripes, and I loved the way it looked as the knitting grew
