A beautiful life doesn’t always have to make sense – especially not to other people; sometimes things just work, and you can’t explain why.

This cheerful shawl is somehow both classic AND whimsical, featuring layers of color and balanced stitch details. Popcorn Catamaran is an ode to creativity, trusting the artistic process, and holding onto your sense of wonder at any age.
