Notes

This is the prototype for my latest design. It was named Gardener’s Shawl because it is reminiscent of sunshine on nicely planted rows of vegetables. The exaggerated crescent allows it to be worn with a ripple in back if the front is left loose. Almost like a capelet. See the second picture above. If wrapped in other ways, the ripple goes away. I really love everything about this shawl and am pleased that it came out exactly how I envisioned it.

Inside neck edge measures 52” from tip to tip and shawl is 18” deep at center.

Pattern will be available later this month.
