Reminiscent of the rainbows found over the Rocky Mountains in Western Alberta, this gorgeous shawl radiates with similar colours. Using our new (and instantly charming) Prismatic Mini-Mini yarn set, Jennifer Beever combines simple stockinette stitch and soft garter for a dreamy accessory that every knitter will love.
The abundant crescent shape wraps delightfully around your shoulders; lofty and warm. But, it’s the opportunity to really personalize the colours that really speaks to me. Imagine mixing the hues up into a different order or combining with another neutral tone in our lineup such as Linen, Hush, Dreamboat, Snowfall, Silver, or Tumbled Stone. Utterly personal while amazingly colourful.
