I designed Shawl La La during the lazy summer months, when I wanted to cast on something casual that I could relax with and enjoy, rather than commit to a lengthy pattern. This is a super simple shawl project that you can take anywhere. Get into the rhythm of all those garter stitches and you can chat away with your bestie while you knit or just let your mind wander. It’s also a great pattern to showcase color-changing yarn. I paired a beautiful mohair ombre with a twinkly Stellina to make it extra special, but I know Shawl La La would be fantastic with an array of fibers, textures and colors.
