This allows for financial flexibility while still valuing and respecting the work and energy I and others provide in the making of this pattern. The price shown on Ravelry is the “true” value of the pattern that best reflects the work put into creating this design.

Springtime in Japan is heralded by the blossoming sakura. These ornamental cherry trees grace the landscape with a rosy glow. The Sakura Shawl is a top-down triangular shawl with easy-breezy stockinette and beaded garlands of lacy petals. Worked in a contrast color, the striking lace border hints at the branches and blooms filtering the sunlight. Unlike the fleeting sakura that last but a week, Sakura Shawl will wrap you in their beauty all year.
