This shawl is big, it's bold, and it's beautiful!

Hand-knit with 25% Manx Loaghtan, 75% Punta Arenas wool, this is a product that is not made with Canadian-produced fibre. However, it was milled in Italy at a mill renowned for environmentally friendly practices, specifically for, and hand-dyed by, Ancient Arts Yarns in Calgary, Alberta. It is a truly sustainable fibre, despite coming from other parts of the world. (Did you know: The Manx Loaghtan is a rare breed of sheep native to the Isle of Man?)
This shawl is knit in an asymmetrical triangle with a pattern of stitching for added interest. The stitching was kept plain to really show off the colourway - a variegation of pinks, reds, and browns. It really does remind us of chocolate and cherries!
This shawl took approximately 42 hours to knit.
