Meet Miley, a statement shawl with strength and softness in equal measure. Its large, sculptural flower motifs bloom from a classic garter tab start, their petals shaped by flowing cables. Inspired by a certain song about independence and self-love, Miley reminds us that yes, you can knit yourself flowers.

RECCOMENDED CARE
RECCOMENDED CARE
Handle our soft and delightful yarn with care. It's delicate nature requires gentle attention for a soft, airy fluff finish. Be mindful of its fragility when winding and knitting with it. With proper care, your final product will showcase the beauty of this yarn without any compromise in quality.
WET-BLOCKING
- Fill a sink or basin with cold water.
- Submerge the fabric in water, gently squeezing out any air bubbles so that the piece can remain under water without being held there.
- Soak work for 30 minutes or longer allowing fabric to become completely saturated.
- Remove excess moisture by rolling your fabric between clean, dry towels with light pressure.
- Lay fabric flat and shape to air dry.
