Spirit of the Southwest Shawl

The colors – a dark rich turquoise teamed with adobe gold and dusty burgundy – shown in this uniquely-shaped shawl are reminiscent of the the Southwest United States and all the romance and history of that area. This shawl is worked from the neck-edge down, with subtle shaping and a simple lace design that shows the hand-dyed fingering-weight yarn to perfection.

A fun knit and a gorgeous garment that works with jeans or a fancy dress – what more could you need?
