The shawl was originally designed as a collaboration with Knitting the Stash and Melissa Littlefield's curated Shorn V breed-specific yarn. It is intentionally designed to work with a variety of yarns and specifically to highlight beautiful farm yarn. Consider choosing a small producer local to you, a Vermont producer, knittingthestash.com Flock Yarn Shop, or using your own handspun.
