This shawl is part of my newest publication Parchment & Pressed Flowers! It’s a 3 pattern eZine (basically an eBook) available HERE. If you find yourself drawn to 2 or more of the 3 patterns it’s cheaper to pick up a copy of the eZine! The eZine includes this pattern along with Tincture and Parchment & Pressed Flowers.
