Bridge Road is my favorite place in Florida. It’s shaded from the hot sun, and has a low draw bridge that crosses over the Intracoastal Waterway. It makes for a lovely walk that ends right at a small public beach on Jupiter Island.

Bridge Road Light uses three colors of fingering weight yarn and is filled with a variety of simple textures and multiple color changes, making it a fun knit that’s easy to wear.

Looking for the original Bridge Road shawl, knit in dk? It’s right here.
