The backstory:
In the beautiful Pacific Northwest, autumn has been an enchanting blend of warm sunny days and crisp chilly nights. As I brewed my morning coffee in the early hours, still shrouded in darkness, I felt a chill run down my spine. Moving from room to room in my old house, I knew I had to embrace some "applied science" to warm up for the season ahead. But just because it’s functional doesn’t mean it can’t be beautiful!

This petite, crescent-shaped shawl serves as a stylish shoulder warmer or a versatile neckerchief, perfect for keeping warm on brisk autumn outings. It’s also an excellent small project for knitters on the go. Imagine snuggling up in this charming piece, featuring unique color combinations that you can customize for a personal touch, whether you choose vibrant handspun yarns or any of your favorite fibers!

Create various fun or dramatic looks as you design your shawl, showcasing your creativity and skill! The design is not just practical but also provides an opportunity to express your artistic flair. This impactful accessory can effortlessly elevate any outfit while providing the warmth you need.
