  • Crossfield Shawl

    I’ve gotten a few emails about what I’m wearing in my Welcome photo over on the side there, and I’m happy to announce that the Crossfield Shawl pattern is now available!

    CROSSFIELD SHAWL

    A super light, airy square shawl reminicient of a bandana or silk scarf. Easy to knit stockinette in the round with a fun garland lace edging. Wear it folded and tied, over your shoulders or any way you’d wear a bandanna!

    This shawl would also make a beautiful baby or lap blanket worked in fingering weight or heavier yarn for a larger finished size.
