Ancient Earth is an easy-to-wear, shoulder-hugging shawl. The body of the shawl is simple stockinette knitting. The border, which looks more complicated than it is, is a bold use of colour, and an open-work lace area. It's a fairly big piece that will give you a sense of satisfaction, and will keep you warm and cosy on those chilly evenings. Neutral and Blues are available now, Jewel and Fall in a couple of weeks.
