Succulent Shawl
Thank you to all those who downloaded the pattern whilst it was free. You well and truly surpassed the 500 mark in my absence, and instead 1505 of you snapped it up!
Description:
Many years ago my sister asked for a couple of succulent plants for her Birthday. I obliged and found some interested looking plants for her.
A few weeks later I bought my own. One commonly known as a jade tree or money tree, and the other a spiky type of aloe.
Very easy to care for, the jade tree only 2 years later is absolutely huge! It has outgrown my deepest windowsill and I’m not sure where to go next. The aloe, also keeping very well. Oh, and I habe many many more succulents now filling the windowsills.
This pattern is inspired by the basic shape of that very young aloe, with its three spikes.
