Rosemarie's Garden Shawl

Rosemarie’s Garden Shawl honors the woman who taught me to knit and her magical West Coast garden. Rosemarie’s memories of our afternoons in her garden are lost to Alzheimer’s but they remain some of my fondest childhood reflections. Integrating lace on garter and stockinette stitch backgrounds, all three pattern sizes capture the rich textures and foliage that grace the Pacific West Coast and Rosemarie’s garden.

No two gardens are alike and our memories of the past are constantly shifting. With this in mind, Rosemarie’s Garden Shawl is designed for versatility. Whether working from the design as written or following the tips to modify the shawl, this pattern is fun to knit, easy to memorize, and a timeless addition to your wardrobe.
