Shepherd's Way Shawl
This half-circle shawl has texture through out, fun color changes, and is finished off with a braided border. It is the perfect size to hug around you during the chilly months.
For this shawl I used yarn from Orchard View Lincoln Longwools. Lincoln Longwool is known for its extremely lustrous sheen and durability. It gave this shawl the drape and shine I was looking for. I encourage you to find a small family farm to purchase your yarn from when knitting this shawl! It is so important to support these shepherds who are working hard to supply us with wonderful yarn from their happy and healthy flocks.
