We’re sure you’ll find one that you’ll want to have on your hook this summer!

Going Ashore Shawl

The Going Ashore Shawl, created by Sharon Ballsmith, will protect you from the cool ocean breeze. This striped shawl pays homage to nautical looks with its navy and cream color palette. The touch of yellow gold adds more interest to this fun look.

Herbaceous Shawl

To me the perfect summer day involves clear, blue skies and a walk in a park or botanical garden. The Herbaceous Shawl, made by Daniela Nii, is a whimsical piece with airy details and a sky-like hue. The feminine lace allows the piece to be breathable and ideal for warmer summer days.

Capital Shawl

Wrap up with the Capital Shawl, by Juliette Bezold. The lacey piece is light enough for summer but allows you to keep warm during cooler nights or windier days. By using colorful variegated yarn, you will be able replicate the color of your favorite garden flowers. The contrasting details pop against the lace in the shawl.

Summer Breeze Shawl

One thing I always look forward to in the summertime is seeing my grandparents’ garden. The bright flowers spark joy and the Summer Breeze Shawl, by Sharon Ballsmith, reminds me of the orange lilies that bloom. The textured edge of the shawl is reminiscent of flower petals and the piece pairs with any outfit, making it perfect for a summer wardrobe.

Monarch Shawl

Where I live, “butterfly season” does not begin in spring, but rather in summer. The Monarch Shawl, designed by Kathryn White, is a show-stopping work of art. Whether you are going to a butterfly garden or basking in the sun, this shawl is a must-make and will allow you to have your own pair of beautiful wings.
