Handknit merino wool shawl/wrap. Adult. Mosaic and stripes. retailer Purples, greens, blue, cream.

I get the feeling that when most people hear “shawl” they think of someone long ago, wrapped in a basic triangle, huddled by the fire. I hope this piece (and others like it in my shop) can break that image! Really, it is an incredibly versatile and stylish accessory that can be worn so many ways, with everything from jeans to dresses: it's a scarf, a wrap, and a fantastic poncho-like cover all in one.

I love this soft yarn blend of 80% superwash merino wool with 20% polyamide to add a little extra stretch and shape - if the yarn is designed to be comfy while you're on your feet all day, just imagine how cozy it is in a squishy outer layer! The fiber blend provides warmth without weight (less than 7oz), making it convenient retailer to wear or pack for a day out, a big trip, and everything in between.

“Wing span” is approximately 57in; top edge to tip depth is approximately 20in.

Care: Machine wash in cool water, lay flat to dry.
