Dragonflies dancing across the water. That’s what inspired the Litha shawl. The beautiful and intriguing surface captures the feeling of quiet summer days, glistening light and the small joys we pause to notice. The bobbles and cables flowing across the surface are easy to do, no cable needle or turning of the fabric needed. These textured elements are balanced with the smooth stockinette and an eyelet pattern reflecting the ripples on water. Wherever you’re knitting this, Litha brings a bit of summer magic to your needles.
