Then Comes Spring

Since the first snow fall

My mind has been thinking of

The blossoms of spring

While Autumn is my favorite season, Spring comes in a close second. Spring, symbolizing renewal, joy, and hope certainly evokes the same feelings within me after a long, cold winter. This shawl is worked in an all-over leaf lace stitch finished with a squishy garter stitch border, all in a swooping crescent silhouette. Pair it up with a lively, bright (and for extra points, green) color way and you’ll be wearing Spring on your shoulders.

But maybe this shawl is more than a physical representation of Spring. Perhaps it can also serve as a reminder that after the deep winters of our lives, like the seasons of the planet, then comes Spring.

Pattern has been tech edited and test knit for errors and clarity. Pattern also includes written and charted instructions, schematic, stitch counts for every row and a video tutorial on the CDD stitch.
