Product Details

This modularly-constructed triangular shawl makes use of cables, slipped stitches and short rows to evoke the carved double-spirals found in Neolithic rock art. Numerous spiral carvings decorate the passage tomb of Newgrange, in Ireland, which was designed and built with an orientation towards the winter solstice. Similar carvings are found across Western Europe, at sites such as Achnabreck in Scotland and Gavrinis in Brittany.
