Snowdrops - shooting up from a still frozen land towards the light we barely notice. It’s an early celebration of spring when nature looks deep in sleep. Tenacious yet delicate white buds bringing hope for brighter and warmer days…

“Snowdrops” is a rectangular shawl with curved lacy edges representing the retrieving snow. Patches of Snowdrops between blobs of water forming a delicate lace pattern emphasized by Estonian nupp stitches. You can choose between written instructions and charts or use both for easier following.

Remember! You can knit anything two rows at a time. ♥︎
