Inspired by this personal history, I created Etta’s Shawl. This oversized triangle shawl is designed for instant gratification, knitting up quickly with an easy-to-memorize repeat that
makes it suitable for every skill level. Whether you choose to knit it in a serene single color or embrace a vibrant palette, you’ll create a unique and beautiful garment that reflects both your personal style and the rich tapestry of family connections.
