This week I have a new pattern to share with you. I named it the Bermuda Triangle Shawl, and my hope is that you’ll “get lost” (in a good way) in all the fun stitches. It’s what I call a triangular crescent, and it’s similar in overall shape to my Metamorphosis Shawl but with a… Read More A New Pattern – the Bermuda Triangle Shawl

And,… Read More Light as a Feather Shawls for Summer
