The Sands of Time Shawl encapsulates the warmth and comfort I seek for the Nordic winter conditions. Designed as the perfect go-to shawl when the temperature drops below 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit), or to be your best friend when you need something soft while getting lost in your favorite book. Tt’s not just a project; it’s a cozy companion crafted for extra shelter.

Knitted up in lofty wool and silk mohair on 5 mm/US 8 needles, the Sands of Time Shawl invites you to face the cold with style in its soothing embrace. For a more whimsical finish, add tassels!
