The Salamander Park Shawl was inspired by the classic Great Smoky Mountain National Park Pendleton blanket. The nature influenced colors and bold stripes make this top-down DK weight triangle shawl a showstopper. The striking stripes are accentuated by an applied crochet border . A video tutorial is linked in the pattern to help you along the way! Knit in The Lamb and Kid Tod, this shawl is a soft and cuddly option whether you’re hitting the trails or the pavement!

Did you know? I chose the name Salamander Park Shawl because Great Smoky Mountain National Park is known as the “salamander capital of the world”!!! The park is home to more than 30 species of salamanders!!!
