Sunshine Tulip Shawl
This pattern was inspired by the change of the seasons, when it is not the end of winter but we can feel the warmth of spring, when everyone feels the excitement of the tulip bulbs starting to work their way through the soil.
This will become your “in between season shawl”, the one you will want to wear because it will keep you warm but that will also make you feel ready for the lighter colors that spring brings.
My friend Manda described the shawl perfectly when said “you could wrap yourself in sunshine for winter’s end”. I hope this shawl brings you joy after a long winter and makes you look forward to all the beauty that is spring.
