The first leaves of spring burst open on Gitta Schrade’s cool cotton throw featuring the freshest colors of the season and just a touch of texture. The intarsia leaves are knit in individual squares joined together, and finished with a striped garter- and stockinette-stitch border. Embroidered details on the leaves add surface interest and a realistic touch.
