Deep in the Mitten

Soundtrack today!
Michigan is an incredibly beautiful state.
A lot of people are surprised by that. Because they think . . . Detroit. Manufacturing. Industry. Cars.
But no.
Michigan is sandy beaches.
Massive dunes.
Rugged coastline.
And water. Lots of water.
I love the sights of Michigan!
And, without any plans or intentions, I knit myself a shawl. . . that ended up reminding me of Michigan!
It's all there. The sand. The water. The sky. The whole coastline!
And I can even wear it right now! Because this summer is a cool one.
Some summers are just like that . . .
Especially in Michigan!

Ravelry details here.
A shawl that brings home, home. It's beautiful and BIG, and all encompassing. You'll love wrapping up in your beauty no matter where you go. xox

The shawl is gorgeous and it's even better that it makes you think of the beautiful place that you live. Our summer hasn't been cool, I think it's been just right.
