Braids of Joy is more than just a shawl; it is a woven story of happiness, warmth and loving moments.

Inspired by the simple joys that give color to our days, this asymmetrical, triangular shawl wraps you in the comfort of Yak yarn, soft as a cloud against your skin.

The pattern is easy to memorize and very satisfying to knit.

Customizable to your needs, Braids of Joy is a shawl that is as versatile as it is beautiful. Keep it short and short for a cozier feel, perfect to drape over your shoulders for a light, elegant touch. Or, make it longer to wrap yourself in warmth, turning it into a cute statement piece. This shawl grows with you, just as joy grows with the little moments in our lives.
