Bump in the Night is a spooky, ONE CLUE, simple mystery shawl pattern. Beginner friendly, or a good palette cleanser for more advanced knitters. Any yarn, any gauge. Use about 200-400 grams of fingering weight, sport, dk, or worsted weight with the recommended needle size. Simply knit until the shawl reaches the size you want. Solids, semi-solids, and variegated/multi-color yarns would all work. This pattern would showcase a fade or gradient especially well.
