Never Say Die

"Never say die" is one of the most iconic lines from the classic movie "The Goonies." Inspired by this adventurous tale, the yarn colors for this shawl pattern capture the spirit of the film. The name "Never Say Die" and the main color of the shawl pay homage to this memorable phrase, while the design incorporates symbolism from the movie. The pattern features a basic Granny Ripple stitch, reminiscent of arrows on a treasure map. It is easy to memorize and allows each mini-skein color to shine. Unlike the Goonies' challenges, this shawl is easy to create and a joy to wear.
