Cape Town Protea

If you share my passion for discovering beautiful local yarn while traveling, you’ll appreciate the joy of bringing home unique skeins as souvenirs. The first shawl in the Kino Knits Knitting on Safari Collection is designed to celebrate that adventure by helping you creatively use up that special yarn. For this pattern, I selected some exquisite cowgirlblues sock yarn that I stumbled upon in the vibrant city of Cape Town, South Africa. This stunning shawl features charming garter stitch sections framing a delicate lace panel that pays tribute to the iconic South African flower, the protea. What makes this pattern truly special is its versatility. After completing the intricately designed lace panel, you can seamlessly continue knitting in garter stitch until your precious yarn runs out—ensuring that not a single bit of this unique souvenir yarn goes to waste! This not only results in a beautiful finished shawl but also a great way to remember your travels through your crafting. Perfect for knitters of all skill levels, this pattern is a fantastic addition to any yarn lover’s collection. Dive into the world of knitting souvenirs with this stunning shawl pattern today!
