Description

A vacation shawl: with or without the vacation.

A few years ago my family went to Hawaii – it was a huge endeavor. It was our first proper family vacation (probably ever) and it was pretty amazing, but also dotted with the familiar challenges of travel and family and close quarters. I remember it as perfect, and that’s what matters. There were more than a few blissful moments sitting in the sand, staring out at the sea and letting this shawl take form on my needles. When it’s right, it’s right – and this shawl practically knit itself.

Memories and mental vacations might be as good as it gets right now, so if you find yourself silently screaming, “GET ME OUTTA HERE” in your heart, I feel you. Let’s knit our way out of this, shall we?
