Fresh Forest
Wing & A Prayer Farm’s new Clun Forest yarn will soon become your favorite workhorse yarn. This shawl features a skein of natural and one dyed skein. The yarn is plump, squishy, and rustic yet soft. Worked top down with extra edge increases to give it a wider width for wrapping without adding extra depth. Perfect size to keep the chill off in Fall or bundle up under a coat in the depths of winter. All colorwork is done using one color at a time. If you crave a larger shawl you can work extra rows of the edge pattern or the main body texture.
