Notes

May 17 This is a shawl for a wonderful lady whose two favourite places are Seattle and Victoria, so I thought I would try to evoke coastlines, water, reflections, sunshine. 12 epi.

May 19 Speed weaving!! Love how this shawl came out, I had so much fun creating shorelines upon shorelines :) My favourite detail is in the second photo - a low sun’s reflection on placid water. <3
