from 19 reviewsHaven't started knitting yet but I love the pattern, very clear to follow
I decided to go with Wisp of Warmth over other patterns because I liked the edges and the fact that I could make it as wide or long as I wanted. The instructions are clear even for a novice. The wyif got me at first, but when I took it row by row, all became apparent with the result of a lovely edge. I used a fine wool yarn & it is very warm even though it is narrow and a single time around my neck. Highly recommend it. Great use of stash. Thanks for free pattern.
I love the final result with this pattern... a warm and attractive poncho-like effect.i used a changing color wool so it has a lovely three color play between the colors. The knitting isn't was not terribly interesting or difficult so that wirings for beginners.
This was a really fun pattern! Lovely yarn, turned out great. Highly recommended!
Easy pattern to follow. Can't wait to finish the shawl and wear it.
The pattern is easy to follow and turned out beautiful.
Its beautiful and comfortable to wear, thank you
Great pattern, I used up some scrap yarn & just picked one main colour! Turned out great!
