Each of the 4 repeated wedges of the shawl begins with a gathering of leaves, then moves downward into the twisting, odd trunks of the aspens, culminating in the feather and fan edge, which reminds me of the strata of decay on the forest floor, shot through with the communal roots of the aspens above.

Other Details: This shawl is worked from the neck down, in 4 wedges, using yarn overs on each end of every 4th row to shape it and make it larger. As it gets larger each row also gets longer than the last. The shawl begins with a provisional cast on to knit a small flap with live stitches on both ends. You will pick up stitches along the side of the flap to begin shaping the shawl.
