Abeille is a stunning asymmetrical shawl inspired by the springtime season and the bees that pollinate flowers & food throughout the growing season. The purple squishy garter stitch is reminiscent of heather along the moors of England, or new violets emerging from the earth after a long winter. The golden honey hue in striking lace compliments the warmth of the garter stitch fabric while looking like lovely little beehives.

Wear this shawl in the spring and summer to keep away the evening chill, or in the winter to warm away the blues!
