PATTERN INFORMATION
Frostwork – A play on the word needlework, evoking frost patterns on windows.
Frostwork is a knit rectangular shawl that blends timeless texture with wintry elegance. It features the embossed trellis stitch framed by chunky cables, invoking the quiet poetry of frost-kissed mornings.

It is one size (approx. 46 cm x 183 cm / 18” x 72”). But it can easily be adjusted for length or width and worn in a multitude of ways.
The result is a cozy, sophisticated wrap—perfect for gifting, dressing up winter outfits, or savoring slow, snowy evenings.
