This is a sideways shawl that was inspired by Sara, a dear friend of Tami Dyman of Eternity Ranch. Sara is an inspirational example of beauty, grace, and forgiveness for those who turned her world upside down. The yarn colors Tami chose to honor Sara with were inspired by the breathing, majestic Western Montana Mountains where Sara lives and found the power to forgive. The collaboration of yarn meets design is a delicate, dense pattern that expresses Sara’s strength as well as her femininity, giving the feel of the serene mountains where Sara finds peace. The subtle toning and yet vibrant coloring gives a three dimensional look along with excellent stitch definition and drape. The size and shape of the shawl lends itself to be worn either traditionally or draped in a number of ways around the neck, enhancing any outfit for any occasion.

NOTE: You will need to weigh your yarn on a scale before you start, and as you knit this shawl. If you are not using a scale, you MUST swatch to get gauge and follow the repeats of the sample.

The beauty of the construction of this shawl is you can make as small or as large as you would like, repeating the sections according to your OWN skein’s yardage, enabling you to use very close to the entire skein of yarn.

Tami at Eternity Ranch dyed up this beautiful, vibrant colorway for the kit. If If you are interested in a custom dyed skein of visit her shop - Eternity Ranch
