Pure light is all colors.
Therefore it has no hue.
Only when singleness is scattered
Does color appear.

A while ago I posted a picture with 3 skeins of yarn on Instagram that I was all set to knit The Odyssey Shawl by JoJo Locatelli with. After starting the shawl a few times, I was just not happy with the fabric I was getting with the yarn I am using.
Sooo… I changed course and decided on knitting the lovely Boneyard Shawl by Stephen West using only 2 colors instead of the 3 I had set aside.
I started this new shawl a number of times over the last few weeks, not sure how wide or how many stripes I wanted to incorporate, but finally I decided to keep it simple with narrow stripes and I will finish the bottom with the golden color.
This shawl is a pure joy to knit! The rhythm is comforting and the fabric is so lush. I can definitely see knitting another one of these shawls down the road!
I have a few winter knitting projects planned that I am excited about. It feels wonderful to be knitting again!
That’s a gorgeous color!
