This three-color triangle shawl was inspired by Chicago’s Lakeshore Path, with its greenery reflected in both the city skyline and the mirror-like waters of Lake Michigan. Walk along the cabled paths and take in the sights through lace resembling the warm glow of sunlight filtering down through dappled leaves. Complete your look with a shawl cuff or pin.
