The Yuha shawl was made for those moments of transition, when the heat of day cools and the rich red sun dips toward the horizon. Worked from the bottom up, this triangular shawl can be knit as large as you like — be it bandana-sized for a night out or a cozy cocoon for tired kiddos. Inspired by the multicolored layers of rich terroir, Yuha balances interest and ease with its dual stripes and contrasting columns of texture. Written for both DK weight Arbor or Dapple and fingering weight Peerie, you are sure to find vibrant colors that speak to your heart.
