The Birch Sap shawl is inspired by a birch tree alley from the designer's past using variegated yarn. The rows of birch trees provide a sheltered, comfortable place in the middle of nowhere so Jenny is reminded of home and days long gone.  This elegant shawl is worked using the same easy Top Down Sideways construction as the Pralines and Savoy Truffle shawls, and it especially great for people who love knitting classic top down shawls but prefer something more modern to wear. It can be worn in several different ways, and I especially love to wear it so that the large piece warms my shoulder and the long piece wraps around to keep the shawl secure.
