This beautiful shawl, knitted sideways, was created to
enhance the natural beauty of single breed undyed
wools found on the Smeaton Eastate Farm, in East
Lothian, Scotland.
The undyed, natural colours of Ryeland and
Hebridean sheep wools flow gently side by side and in
harmony, without ever competing against one another.
Smeaton Shawl is a very relaxing project to knit, with
a simple lace motif and Garter St sections.
