Play is an invitation. A joyful return to intarsia — a technique I find myself coming back to again and again, like a language of color I never tire of speaking.
This warm shawl is a space to explore. Bold blocks, quiet stripes, unexpected combinations — a place where your colors can shift, collide and come alive. You can work with nine shades, or just two, or follow your instinct and see where it leads you. Gather your favorite DK leftovers, or hold fingering double, and let go of the rules for a moment.

Let yourself Play.
