Inspiration for this pattern:
There wasn’t really any!
The idea for it came to me the second I decided I wanted to take a weekend off from work…
Instead of doing that, I went ahead with the design.
So naming this pattern was quite easy, as this was what I did my weekend off – designed a simple shawl to fit any yarn and needle.

Happy Knitting!
