The inspiration behind this shawl comes from my Mom’s love for her garden and the beauty of it. If you have watched a few of my podcast episodes, you might have seen a glimpse of my Mom’s gorgeous garden. This shawl also came to life, because my Mom (“Lisa”) wanted to have a shawl that would wrap nicely around her back, when she sits on her patio in the evening – enjoying the beautiful flowers that grow in her garden.

This pattern includes written row-by-row knitting instructions plus charts for the different lace sections.
