With the holidays coming up, I’ve been looking for patterns for gifts that I can share with you and here’s a really pretty lacy shawl I found.  Have you found super soft yarn or perhaps that sparkly yarn you weren’t sure what to do with?  Here’s a great pattern for you!

Since double-knit patterns are so hard to find, when I find one I have to share!  This one comes from Echstudio in the Netherlands.  Thanks to the simplicity of this pattern (and Google Translate!), here is a wonderfully simple-to-make shrug that you can double-knit loom, traditional knit or crochet with ease.  

What do you get when you find the most delicious, luxurious chenille yarn on clearance and the Star Stitch for the double-knit loom?  You get this pretty, lacy, unbelievably soft and surprisingly warm wrap.  

Here’s a beautiful knit shawl that can easily be made as a scarf, as well. Double-knit in rib stitch, this quick and easy shawl is not only warm and beautiful, it’s so soft you’ll never want to take it off!
