Winter Berry
Winter Berry
With a moreish stitch inspired by Yayoi Kusama’s pumpkins, Winter Berry is a side-to-side shawl pattern that practically flies off the needles! Knit a small for the perfect layer to pop in your bag in case you get cold, or knit a large for a warm and generous shawl that envelopes you like a hug.
