The earth is transformed with the change of each season, with Spring painting the landscape with bursts of colour. This shawl was designed with the summer solstice in mind and was inspired by the beautiful landscape of British Columbia. The combination of lace and garter stitch is an enjoyable knit that you won’t want to put down, and it leaves you with a colourful shawl that can be worn throughout the changing seasons.
