A wide, shallow triangular knitted wool shawl made from a yarn that I created myself using a quite complex method which also involved me making dyes from homegrown vegetables. A simple knit shawl with rows of garter stitch and a beaded lace edging in a beautiful greeny-bronze colour.
This small shawl can be worn with a coat or jacket in a scarf style or it can worn like a traditional shawl.
This would be an amazing unique handmade accessory or everyday wear or to buy as a special gift for that special lady.
All of my shawls are presented gently folded in a tissue lined gift box and come with individually created care cards. The gift box can be used for storage or reused as the label should be able to be removed without too much trouble.
Design code LF213. Can be custom made in your choice of colour and yarn, price may vary based on price of chosen materials. Please allow at least 1 week from date of orders commencement of work to date of dispatch. Please see my policies regarding custom made items.

How to clean hand knit or crocheted shawls:
Clean by gently placing in hand warm and a specialist delicate soap such as SOAK or Eucalan and allow to soak for 30 minutes, no vigorous rubbing is needed. Gently squeeze out the excess water (do not wring), place on a clean towel and roll it up then press down gently on the towel to soak up as much as possible. Lay out flat on a clean surface to dry, using pins and/or blocking wires to gently stretch the shawl out to shape and maintain its beauty if required.
Want to buy as a gift?
All my shawls are sent out in a brand new sturdy white ribbon tie gift box with tissue paper surrounding the shawl for protection and a couple of other special little packaging details that you only get when buying handmade. The gift box is then placed in a cardboard mailing carton to protect the gift box and then in a showerproof mail bag prior to dispatch. This is my standard packaging and I don't charge extra for this.
