Homeward Bound Shawl Kit
Homeward Bound Shawl Kit
This shawl was originally designed in conjunction with the London shop Knit With Attitude. The blocks of colour are bold and yet practical for any knitter to wear. It is a fun way to play with colour or to use up leftover bits of sock weight yarn. This kit includes everything you need to make one shawl.
