Courage Shawl by Shannon Cook (pattern)

The Courage Shawl by Shannon Cook features Kelbourne Woolens’ Germantown and Spincycle Yarns’ Dream State. This relaxing knit is a perfect autumnal shawl to snuggle up in.

This shawl is meant to soothe your soul. Designed during a time in my life that I needed to have courage, it’s a project that you can get lost in, but also express your emotions and personality through. The mosaic knitting technique creates a gorgeous pattern while still letting your mind relax, so whether it’s knit during your happiest or most challenging time, Courage will bring you solace and joy. Choose colors that inspire you, and wear this shawl bravely as a symbol of your own personal journey. – Shannon Cook
