Cherry Falls
NOTE: Each stripe was knit with 14 rows, which blocked out to 2” for the garter stripes and 3” for the stockinette stripes.
The Cherry Falls Shawl (shown in Brooklyn Tweed Shelter) with its classic striping, harkens back memories of camp blankets and cozy nights wrapped up in wool around a fire. As we navigate COVID-19 and our love of hiking, we decided to name this shawl after one of our beloved local haunts - Cherry Falls. Designer Rachel Kieselburg grew up in the area, and Cherry Falls was one of her first hikes as a child. It is a reminder of the beauty of our own backyard here in the Snoqualmie Valley. The Cherry Falls Shawl is a large blanket shawl, and will certainly keep you snug and warm.
