This simple, squishy garter stitch shawl makes perfect TV/travel knitting, and has plenty of scope for playing with colour - keep it simple or mix it up. It is also great for using up scraps of leftover yarn, as the stripes require only tiny quantities.
Although this DK version of this pattern was written for Whitfell DK, it would be just as good in any other of our DK yarns.
