Inspiration Wharf Shawl Pattern Set For The 2020 Long Island Yarn Crawl

January 16, 2020/ Michele C

The Inspiration Wharf Shawl Patterns were inspired by and named for Inspiration Wharf - Port Washington, NY and designed for the Long Island Yarn Crawl of 2020. I had a lot of fun designing these and translating the idea to stitches. Both the crochet and knit have their own features but are still true to the overall vision of the design.
