This shawl is a love song to both texture and colour.
I am always walking my dog, Peaches, and so neck wear is probably my number one worn knitwear item so a shawl had to be a part of the collection. Erika Knight designed this shawl with five colours and five different stitch patterns. It is so cosy and not too big that you'll drown in it or not be able to tuck it into your coat.
This wrap is for the stitch lovers, for those who want a little something more than popcorn knitting but not too much more. Knit on a 5mm needle, it moves pretty quickly which is nice.
A Walk in the Park is part of the design collaboration between A Yarn Story and Erika Knight using our in-house yarn, Origin. You can find the rest of the collection here.
You can find yarn bundles for this shawl with a variety of colour combos here.
Please note: This pattern comes in the form of a digital download.
