Heading South Shawlette
Briskness in the air and geese journeying south are the inspiration for my latest trilogy of designs. This pattern, the shawlette, can be enlarged easily by working an extra repeat of the three sections forming the geese. The geometric design invites you to explore a wonderful array of color combinations. Individualize your shawlette by making each goose with the same color, shades of the same color, or choose a different color for each. No matter what combination you choose, it is certain to be a stunning design.
