About two weeks ago, I stumbled upon Annie’s designs on Ravelry when I found her Grady shawl (a fabulous pattern for a gradient yarn)… and then by chance, she messaged me to let me know that she was designing these cowls with our yarns. Since then, I’ve discovered that she has a whole collection of fabulous fingering weight shawl patterns too. You can check them all out here ยป
