Havina is a Finnish word for the small swish, sound of leaves. This earthy colored handdyed yarn inspired into vernal, generously sized shawl design, featuring Stockinette and light ribbing ending up in leaf pattern with simple garter twist.
This slightly crescent shaped, triangle shawl, is constructed from top down and shaped with increases on edges and in the middle. Lacy feeling on the middle wedge is achieved by working the knit stitches from the back loop.
With different color choice or different yarn, the shawl is either casual or festive.
