Renate captures the essence of winter: a time of rebirth, transformation, and renewal. Forest floors are coated with fallen leaves and drifts of snow. Sunlight, hanging low, creates lattice-like shadows on the ground. This versatile and dramatic shawl is worked from one corner to the opposite edge, creating an asymmetrical shape. It lends itself well to color customization, so it can be knit for any season and to any taste. For a lighter-weight shawl, use a lighter fingering-weight yarn and a size 6 needle.
