I imagined a proud farmer looking over her land and animals, wrapped in a warm shawl in the early morning, ready to start a new day full of promise. Some easy and meditative section, interspersed with ornamental stitches representing cone flowers in the fields, make this airy shawl at once uncomplicated and delicate. I hope it keeps you warm and brings you joy!
