It’s Free Pattern Friday!

Today, Hope Springs in Cottonwood (pattern link here). Hope Springs is a formerly pay-only pattern, found in the e-book Cottonwood: Arboretum.
The cover piece, no less!
There are some really beautiful knitted tops featured in the collection. But the design we’re setting free today is the shawl on the cover, Hope Springs.
We took a few extra pictures of this piece here in our studio, to highlight its construction for you. Like how its 3/4 circle shape lets it sit beautifully on the shoulders…
…and what a smooth fabric organic Cottonwood makes. Look at that stitch definition.
Hope Springs is a beautiful sampler, featuring cables, lace, and ribbing.
Designer Amy Gunderson calls for an i-cord bind-off. It’s the perfect finishing touch for this polished piece.
We hope you have a safe and joyous weekend, full of hope and beautiful things.
Happy crafting.
