First off, you want a spell damage weapon. Something that a mage, warlock, elemental shaman, or boomkin would like.

Second, pre-karazhan enchantments and gemming can be summed up rather quickly: Gem for straight stamina (you can ignore the socket colors, you just won't get the bonus), and enchant for defense.

That means:
Solid Star of Elune should be in virtually all your sockets.
Steelweave to Cloak
Defense to Chest
Defense to bracers

Some enchantments that don't follow the rule:
2% threat, or 10 stamina, or 15 agility, or 240 armor to gloves. All are viable options.
18 Stamina to shield.
12 Stamina to boots (8 Def Rating Armor Kit also viable)

Obviously you'll want to replace your healing items with tanking ones, but if you can get all these changes made, you'll be good for all but Prince in Karazhan, and once you hit uncrushable, you'll be OK for him, too.
