Product Details

ve always marveled at the drawings by the 19th century naturalist, biologist and artist Ernst Haeckel who illustrated, in gorgeous detail, hundreds of animals and sea creatures. The repetitive natural forms captured in his drawings offer a lifetime of inspiration for designing repeating shapes and swirls and patterns. The Fossil shawl is reminiscent of one of his ammonite sketches (shown at left.)

It also happens to be a warm, bright and cozy autumn retreat - soothing to knit and delicious to curl up in.

To knit it, you’ll start at the small end and work a growing number of eyelets on just one side, creating a skewed spriral. The result will be a shape that looks like a fictional fossil or shell from some unknown creature.
