“Chawton”

With 2025 being the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s birth, I felt the draw to create some designs around her books and her life.
This is the third one and is named after her home in Hampshire, which is now a museum and is dedicated to her life and work.

This is a chunky shawl that I have created using a very light and open yarn base on large needles which has resulted in a quick to make piece and one that is very soft and warm due to the alpaca in the blend.

It’s a small shawl that can be worn as a cowl as well as worn in the traditional way around the shoulders.

There are no charts, the pattern is written row by row, and is suitable for any knitting ability.
