rich and full of nourishment, loam carpets forest floors and releases its heavy scent with every footfall. made up of different soils and offering the best characteristics of each, this shawl mimics those qualities by playing with multiple popular techniques to create a gorgeous final product. use two different short-row techniques and multiple lace charts, plus a less common shaping construction to create a beautiful asymmetrical crescent shawl.
