The Granite Park Shawl was inspired by the Yosemite National Park Pendleton blanket. The classic colors and bold stripes make this top-down triangular shawl a showstopper . An applied crochet border accentuates the bold stripes. A video tutorial is linked in the pattern along with written instructions to help you along the way. Knit in The Lamb and Kid Tod Worsted, this shawl works up quickly on size 10 needles. It will fly from your needles to shoulders in no time!

Did you know? I chose the name Granite Park Shawl because Yosemite National Park is home to some of, the most iconic granite rock formations on earth!!! Granite dominates the geology of Yosemite and is what comprises the famous formations of Half Dome and El Capitan.
