My kiddo and I are still battling multiple bouts of strep but I’m super excited to share another sneak peek of my upcoming shawl pattern - “Courage” ✨. I’ve been trying to put into words what this shawl means to me & all of the emotions behind it and I promise to share more about it next week when it releases on June 11th 💗. This one is so near and dear to my heart and I so hope it resonates with you all as much as it did with my testers and myself. Xoxox 😘

✨In the meantime I thought I’d share the yarns & yardage needed if you want to get a jump start getting ready. Pattern is both fully written and charted and has lots of helpful bonus features that we worked hard on so don’t be intimidated - it’s an easy knit!
