Re: Easy-on and easy-off shawl

[Lynn & Terry Chapin]

I find that I'm often a little chilly just before the furnace kicks in, 
then feel overdressed after!  I have a little shawl that I wear on cool 
mornings or in the evening when the furnace hasn't quite caught up with 
the temp drop outside.  It's a triangle job...you know the ones that 
start with 3 stitches, then increase at the beginning of every row (I 
think).  Very simple, all garter stitch.  I got bored, or ran out of 
yarn (I made this 20 years ago), so it ended up very short, only covers 
my shoulders and half of my upper arms.  It was in a drawer for years 
waiting for me to finish it, but I was looking around for something to 
fill the need, and came across it last year.  I added twist ties to keep 
it closed at the chest, otherwise it slips off.  I love it so much, I am 
planning a new, prettier one.  The short length is great, since it 
doesn't get in the way of your hands and arm movements.
