A Sideways Asymmetrical Shawl // Design by Tabetha Hedrick
Autumn Dahlias is playful and colourful, evoking a delightful sense of abundance. Delicate lines and subtle patterns let the colours take over, like when autumn dahlias overtake the garden at the close of summer. With a gradient sock blank and contrasting skeins, you'll savour the beautiful, wearable shawl at the end.
