Silver Falls Shawl Kit (Soft Donegal)

Kit included all yarn and pattern.

Second only to Washington in number, the waterways and cascading falls of Oregon have become one of its most prized natural wonders. Silverton, OR is the gateway to one of its famous falls which this shawl is named for, Silverton Falls. With bands of eyelets, slipped stitches, and lace, I hope this shawl will be a fun technique filled project that makes you think of hiking, trees, waterfalls, and the beautiful gardens near Silverton, OR. A “six pieces of eight” shape and garter stitch tab cast-on mean this shawl will sit nicely around your shoulders for a cozy hug when the weather turns a bit chilly.
