Full description
This small triangular shawl has been hand knit by me using 100% Wool. It is plain with rows of eyelet lace and is quite warm. This is a unique and ready to ship item and you will receive the item shown in the photographs.
I hand spun and dyed the wool myself from a fleece. One parent was a Bluefaced Leicester, the other was a Hill Breed.
BfL is usually very soft and Hill Breeds usually less so and in this case it is kind of half-way between the two, a little on the crisp side but shouldn't be overly scratchy, unless you have really sensitive skin.
All of my shawls are presented gently folded in a tissue lined gift box and come with individually created care cards. The gift box can be used for storage or reused as the label should be able to be removed without too much trouble.
Size (approx):
44" across neck edge x 14" deep
Materials:
100% Wool
Weight:
Approx 124g

How to clean the item
Clean by gently placing in hand warm water and a specialist delicate soap such as SOAK or Eucalan and allow to soak for 30 minutes, no vigorous rubbing is needed. Gently squeeze out the excess water (do not wring), place on a clean towel, roll it up then press down gently on the towel to soak up as much as possible. Lay out flat on a clean surface to dry, using pins and/or blocking wires to gently stretch the shawl out to shape to maintain it's beauty.
