Thornton will be your companion against any chill. Warm and cozy garter stitch wraps around your neck and shoulders, and the flowing lace reminiscent of the leaveless shrubs and thorny bushes is a pretty adornment to an otherwise substantial piece. Work your shawl in your favourite colour combination and make it your very own!

Yardage for sample: approx. 1220 m / 1335 to yards, held double, 4 skeins of MC, 1 skein of CC, shown in colour Prune (MC) and Nougat (CC)
