Wildland

Introducing the Wildland Shawl, a beautiful knitting pattern inspired by the enchanting landscapes of Wisconsin. Behind my home, a serene patch of wildland served as my happy place, where majestic hawks, playful seagulls, and a variety of birds danced among the towering pines. The natural beauty of this untamed area, particularly during that magical hour before twilight, captivated me. As the sun cast its golden glow, the vibrant colors of the scene transformed into a breathtaking display, making the entire space feel alive with tranquility. When I discovered the saturated greens and rich golds of the Life in the Long Grass Singles yarn, I felt compelled to capture this golden hour essence in a shawl that you can drape over your shoulders whenever you seek a touch of calm or courage.

The Wildland Shawl features intriguing shaping, a generous amount of garter stitch, and textured slipped stitches that add depth and character. The inclusion of a faded marl offers a unique twist, resulting in a soothing yet slightly spicy knit that embodies both comfort and style. This shawl not only showcases your knitting skills but also invites you to create a wearable piece of art that reflects nature's beauty.

You can easily craft the Wildland Shawl using two strands of fingering weight yarn held double for a luxurious feel or opt for a single strand of DK weight yarn for added warmth and comfort. With endless color options available, you can personalize your shawl to match your unique aesthetic or to evoke the calming spirits of nature that inspired its creation. Embrace your knitting journey with the Wildland Shawl and wrap yourself in a piece of art that brings serenity and inspiration to your daily life.
