Picket Fence
The little secret pathway adorned with overgrown bushes is calling your name, leading to an enchanted picket fence with sweet smelling flowers, entwining sprouts and tender leaves.
With its soft shapes and lovely lines, Picket Fence is a triangular shawl worked sideways, featuring beautiful foliage lace.
Written for fingering weight yarns, Picket Fence allows you to create your own breathtaking display of flora. Each finished leaf or vine brings a new thrill and leaves you craving more.
