Still available from Knotions in one size, the pattern has been updated to include 5/8 and 6/8th semi circular shawls for those who prefer something slightly smaller, directly from the designer.
Shade: shelter (as by foliage) from the heat and glare of sunlight.
Shade: a disembodied spirit or ghost.
While my back garden isn’t huge by any means, I am lucky enough to have several large trees about halfway between my house and my back fence. Pre-dating the construction of my house they majestically shelter and shade parts of my garden allowing me to grow things in their shade that otherwise would cook in Ohio’s hot summers.
This 7/8ths of a circle shawl is in memory of one of the oak trees that once lived and provided shade in my garden. No ghosts here, just a sapling that sprouted from one of the many acorns that tree produced over its life.
