In my childhood we would always go to our local nature center which had short trails around the facility where you would be able to find all sorts of different types of trees, mushrooms and best of all wild flowers.

This cowl was created with a sock weight or fingering weight yarn because I wanted something light and so it would not feel stuffy and I created a larger circle so that it would not feel binding. I called with the Hoot Cowl be...

Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
The yarn I used to create this shawl was the Zen Yarn Garden Serenity Lace in the Arctic colorway. But you can use any lace weight yarn you desire. I also incorporated Miyuki 8 mix Peacock Garden beads but again you can choose you own colorway of beads to match your yarn or not even incorporate the beads in your work. I added the beads to this ...

Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
This shawl was designed in a square pattern so it is like creating four triangular shawls all at once. The design pattern that was used was a slightly modified Estonian lace design of Water Lilies.

This pattern was created with Knit Picks Alpaca Cloud Midnight Heather. It is a Lace weight yarn and I used about 1300 yards to create this stole. You can make this stole larger if you choose.
