Antonia is a quick but interesting knit using just one
100 g skein of sock/fingering weight yarn, making it an excellent stash buster. It showcases gently variegated yarns beautifully with the mix of textures and stitch patterns.

An asymmetric-triangular shawl combines with garter stitch sections, lace motifs and simple eyelets to stunning effect. Suggestions are given on making the shawl larger should you have more yarn to use.
