Branch Out
Ground yourself in simple textures and repetitive motion. Breathe deeply and be rooted in your surroundings. Wrap yourself in cozy garter stitch as a reminder to reach outwards and inwards.
Healthy amounts of short rows, simple decreases, and eyelets add excitement to a relaxing, heartwarmingly autumnal shawl. Branch Out pairs well with hot tea, apple cider, or cocoa. Pattern includes directions for One-Color, Two-Color, and Three-Color or Color Block shawls.
