Tiny Harvest Shawl
€6.60
design: Yuka Tomioka
Description
"When I first touched the yarn ‘Alice’, I was struck by how natural and soft it was. It’s also unique thanks to the linen fibers that add texture and nuance. At the same time, its rusticity reminded me of the beauty of nature and the life in the countryside. I tried to render all these inspirations with delicate lace patterns. This crescent shawl begins at the center top and yarn overs drastically increase stitches, which gives it a beautiful drape. The pattern has both charted and written instructions.
The sizing is perfect to stay on your shoulders and allows you to bring it everywhere with you and add charm to your everyday outfit."
