Product Details

When I created this, I had in mind a pattern that would slowly grow in design and create a beautifully draping asymmetrical shawl that could either be worn over the shoulders or around the neck. I also wanted the pattern to be simple and repetitive enough that it wouldn’t be intimidating to new knitters. (It looks more complicated than it is.)

As I worked on this pattern, New Brunswick has seen a bit of a heat wave, and I have been thankful every day for the refreshing natural air conditioning of the breezes that we get off the Bay of Fundy. Yes we have also had a lot of fog, but I actually enjoy watching it literally roll in. This welcome breeze from the Bay of Fundy is the inspiration for this shawl, and the cathedral windows motif reflects this city of Saint John's heritage. The combination of fibres - holdin a strand of fingering weight merino/bamboo/nylon blend and a strand of mohair together - really makes for a lovely drape and sheen (and fuzzy halo)!
