When You're Fast Asleep

I’ve never been inspired to create something based on a specific place before, but when Destination Yarn unveiled their enchanting Cinderella Castle colorway, I knew I had to bring it to life through my knitting. As soon as I had the yarn in my hands, I realized I wanted to capture the beauty, majesty, and cherished memories of one of my favorite destinations in the world: Walt Disney World. This shawl combines Gothic architecture with a touch of romanticism, all while sprinkling in the joyful memories that this iconic castle holds for my family and me.

When I finished knitting and took it off the blocking mats, it felt as if the world around me came alive; I could almost hear birds singing and clouds cheering with delight. My daughters gasped in awe when they first laid eyes on the shawl, and I was immediately met with a chorus of “Mine!” echoing in the background. It’s my sincere hope that this lovingly crafted shawl brings as much joy and light into your life as it has brought to mine. Remember, as the saying goes, “A Dream is a Wish your Shawl makes…”.

This beautiful shawl pattern features both written and charted lace instructions, making it accessible for knitters of all skill levels. Whether you’re an experienced knitter or just starting your crafting journey, this pattern will guide you in creating a stunning and heartfelt piece that can be treasured for years to come.
