Tsinnia

Jenny Ansah’s *Tsinnia* shawl was inspired by her memories of gardening: “Tsinnia” is the Finnish name for the zinnia flower. The shawl is a small bandana-like accessory with a textured pattern, featuring bobbles representing the flowers’ petals and seed stitch at their centres. *Tsinnia* has a triangular shape with an i-cord on the edges. It is knitted from one end to the other, first with increases and then with decreases. SIZE One size FINISHED MEASUREMENTS **Length**: 34.5" / 86 cm. **Width:** 8.25" / 20.5 cm.
