who knew yarn was so versatile? I love all of these ideas, and now I’m inspired to use yarn instead of ribbon for my holiday packages this year! Thanks for sharing

Does anyone know the pattern and gauge, etc to make the knitted bridal shrug that is featured in these photos?
Do you have a pattern for the shawl?
