How to make a rectangular shawl?

To make a rectangular shawl, you can use the following steps:

Materials:

Yarn of your choice (preferably a lightweight yarn)

Knitting needles (size based on your yarn and desired drape)

Scissors

Tapestry needle

Steps:

Choose the yarn and needles you want to use. If you want a lightweight shawl, choose a lightweight yarn and corresponding needles.

Cast on the desired number of stitches for the width of the shawl. The width of your shawl can be any size you prefer.

Knit every row (garter stitch) until the shawl reaches your desired length.

Bind off the stitches and cut the yarn, leaving a long tail.

Weave in any loose ends using a tapestry needle.

Block the shawl by wetting it with cool water and laying it flat on a towel. Shape it into the desired rectangular shape and let it dry completely.

If desired, add a border to the shawl. You can do this by picking up stitches along the edges of the shawl and knitting a border using a contrasting color or a different stitch pattern.

Once your shawl is dry, it's ready to wear or gift!

Note: You can customize your rectangular shawl by using different yarns, stitch patterns, or adding fringe to the ends
