THIS IS FOR A HARDCOPY OF THE PATTERN TO BE SENT VIA MAIL.
As spring first appears in Seattle, the cherry trees burst into bloom. The wild riot of pink blossums up and down the streets is a promise that the clouds will soon part, and the sun will appear soon. The cherry bloosoms that bloom along this curved, asymmetric shawl will remind you of sprint, too, as you wear it tucked in a coat or wrapped around your shoulders. With a bit of garter and simple lace, this sweet shawl will spring off your needles!
