Product Details

Intro and photographs by Beth Shepherd Peters My mother requested that I make her a light, soft and warm shawl to cover her shoulders. I set out to find a pattern. Then the obvious occurred to me to ask my daughter, a designer, to create a pattern for her grandmother. I told her that I wanted it to be simple to knit and chic enough to wear out. It had to wrap around her shoulders and stay put, even if worn without a brooch to secure the ends.

A marled grey yarn, which perfectly complemented her interests in graphic arts, architecture, and black and white photography, makes up the body of the shawl. The solid black border with just a hint of silky shine perfectly finishes off the edge.
