Hester Gray (of Anne of Green Gables) would have loved the warmth and beauty of this comforting shawl. The shawl’s simple shaping lovingly and securely wraps around the shoulders, allowing you to enjoy all the beauty around you without worrying about how the shawl will stay on. Just what the doctor ordered, it would have wrapped Hester up in soothing softness, allowing her to enjoy her precious garden a little later into the cool Canadian fall, while still being fashionably adorned. Worked in a simple lace motif in a garden-inspired color, the shawl will fly off the needles, allowing you to spend more time outside smelling the roses, imagining you are the tragic heroine of Anne’s fancy!
