Ulm

This pattern is available in English 🇬🇧 and French 🇫🇷.

With its different textures and soft colors, this shawl is named after my mother’s hometown of Ulm. The patterns and vintage look nostalgically recall my grandmother’s home, the old town architecture and happy memories of exploring my family’s past through a child´s eyes.
