Then Comes Spring
Pay What Works: In an effort to find a balance between more financial accessibility and sustainable pricing, I now offer a “Pay What Works” model. This allows for financial flexibility while still valuing and respecting the work and energy I and others provide in the making of this pattern. The price shown on Ravelry is the “true” value of the pattern that best reflects the work put into creating this design.
To purchase the pattern at a price point that is more accessible to you, use the coupon code at checkout listed next to the price point. The prices indicate the price you will pay, not the discount amount. No coupon code is needed for the highest price point.
AROHA1 - $6.00
AROHA2 - $7.20
AROHA3 - $9.60
NO CODE - $12.00
Please note for those located in Europe that VAT is applied at checkout.

Since the first snow fall
My mind has been thinking of
The blossoms of spring
While Autumn is my favorite season, Spring comes in a close second. Spring, symbolizing renewal, joy, and hope certainly evokes the same feelings within me after a long, cold winter. This shawl is worked in an all-over leaf lace stitch finished with a squishy garter stitch border, all in a swooping crescent silhouette. Pair it up with a lively, bright (and for extra points, green) color way and you’ll be wearing Spring on your shoulders.
But maybe this shawl is more than a physical representation of Spring. Perhaps it can also serve as a reminder that after the deep winters of our lives, like the seasons of the planet, then comes Spring.
Needle: US size 6 (4mm), 32” (80cm) circular needle. A long circular needle is recommended in order to accommodate the large number of stitches.
Yarns Used: Circus Tonic Handmade, Gala Fingering (Fingering / 4 ply; 100% Merino; 383 yards / 100 grams). 2 skeins of the color way “Arctic Warbler“ were used.
Yardage: 570 - 650 yards / 520 - 600 meters
Gauge (blocked): 24 sts and 28 rows = 4” (10cm) in lace pattern.
22sts and 40 rows = 4 “ (10cm) in Garter Stitch. Gauge is not crucial to this project, but varying gauges will result in different yardages and final measurements.
Other Notions: Stitch markers, darning needle.
Pattern has been tech edited and test knit for errors and clarity. Pattern also includes written and charted instructions, schematic, stitch counts for every row and a video tutorial on the CDD stitch.
