This unique shawl features wide garter stitch panels paired with simple yet elegant stitch patterns, making it not only visually captivating but also incredibly enjoyable to knit. Whether you're a novice or an experienced knitter, the Lane shawl is sure to bring you joy as you work with it.
Inspired by the farming family I have the pleasure of working for as a nanny, this design captures the beautiful transitions of the fields I observe every day. Each unique set of stitches reflects the changing seasons and landscapes, making the Lane shawl a personal and heartfelt project. The shawl is named after their little boy, Lane, who has kept me company throughout much of quarantine, adding an extra layer of meaning to this creation.
