  • Flowers & Fields - Shawl

    Flowers & Fields is the perfect shawl for in-between seasons - lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy during the early spring or fall nights. Inspired by fields that are just starting to bloom, this shawl is worked up from the tip until it reaches a very wearable asymmetrical triangular shape.

    The combination of the intricate flower bud pattern and comforting, meditative garter stitch makes it an absolute joy to knit!
