Shawl Construction
A triangular-shaped shawl that starts with a unique garter stitch tab and
increases within the wildflower inspired design elements. We begin our
knitting adventure with the precious little Sagebrush Buttercup. Next in our
trek is the beautiful purple Wild Mountain Lupine that grows in abundance
along the roadsides and hiking trails. You will not forget the fields of tall,
stately purple blossoms. As we continue on our journey, you will create the
lovely Prairie Rose and the interesting Coneflower. Between the various
patterns are garter stitch rows that provide you time to rest and ponder
about your own visits to view the beautiful blossoms. At the end of the shawl
is a delightful prairie ruffle (similar to a ruffle you would see on a prairie
dress). The ruffle gives the shawl that special finishing touch. The Prairie
Wildflower Shawl is perfect to wrap around yourself while sitting in a porch
rocker watching a magnificent sunset over the mountains.
This bundle includes 5 skeins of Cody. Shawl is shown in Sorrel.
The pattern is sold separately on Ravelry Prairie Wildflower
Designer
The pattern was designed by Carolyn Holbrook. Carolyn learned to knit very early on in her life. She loves working with yarn and various fibers. She publishes her designs on Ravelry under the name Woolly Needle. Carolyn reached out to us after using our yarn in a design and she became a perfect match. We love her unique style and feel she fits so well with Mountain Meadow Wool. Welcome to the MMW family, Carolyn. When you get this bundle you will need to order the pattern separately on Ravelry under Woolly Needle.
