Meet Linebreak — a shawl that’s all about having fun with texture and color.

Just like a pause between lines in a story, this shawl gives you room to breathe and experiment. There’s no right or wrong way to go with this one. Whether you mix up bold contrasts or choose a softer, more subtle blend, Linebreak lets you fill in the spaces with your own style.

Made with Herb & Hue by The Fibre Company, this shawl is as luxurious as it gets. It’s plant-dyed, which gives it gorgeous depth and richness in every stitch. Plus, the natural tones make it a beautiful and eco-friendly choice.

Each section of the shawl feels like its own little story, giving you a chance to truly enjoy the process. The textures will keep you hooked, and the finished piece is a standout that’s easy to wear, adding that perfect pop of style to any outfit.

With Linebreak, you’re not just making a shawl — you’re embracing the beauty of the space between the lines, creating something that reflects your own rhythm, one stitch at a time.
