Whether it’s a more formal tropical garden or an overgrown jungle of color, the combination of oversized plants, trailing vines, leaves of all shapes and sizes and vibrant exotic blooms – this type of garden is my favorite place to be and something I seek out when traveling – and spend hours trying to create at home.

This design features a variety of lace patterns representing various elements of a jungle garden – with a leafy edge all around.

I knit this shawl in the Popinjay colorway, although others are available as well - including Himalayan Cherry, Tenasserim Hills, and Pitaya - as illustrated in the photos.
