From an aesthetic point of view, I began the centre of the shawl thinking of an idea I’d played with for one of my Follow Your Arrow mystery shawls. As I was knitting a simple triangle for the centre I was reading a book, Lab Girl, which involves a great deal of digging deep holes and closely examining the layers of dirt. It’s a beautiful, lyrical book and somehow the imagery of those uneven layers seeped into my knitting as I read. The result is a shawl that makes the most of the simplest of stitches to highlight the subtle, natural beauty of the yarn. I hope you find it as comforting to knit and wrap up in as I did.
