Lichen, Berries and Moss

This pattern celebrates a few of these unique plants including lichen, cloudberries, and moss while this beautiful gradient colourway captures the beautiful colours of this landscape. This is a sideways asymmetrical shawl and it uses increases and decreases to create a long triangular shape that is easy to wear. Any fingering weight yarn is suitable, especially gradient colours.
