This rectangular wrap includes soothing garter combined with sections of eyelets and brioche while knitting the shape you love the best.

The pattern is available individually or as part of a collection of four shawls using the same stitch patterns to create a squishy accessory to wrap up in. Choose the style that suits you best - shawlette, triangular, asymmetrical or a rectangular shawl.

Eckert Street is in a neighborhood in my town where a number of friends live. It is a street where families congregate in each others yards or on the sidewalk as the young kiddos cruise the block on their bikes or chase each other into exhaustion. It’s where the adults enjoy their beverage of choice and share stories from their day and week. A place where many laughs are shared, along with a few tears every once in awhile.

The friends who live in this special neighborhood are ones I do not see often. We find ourselves running in different paths, but when they converge, sweet memories and moments are had.
