Named for Osmin purple basil, the plant that the original sample is dyed with. This shawl was designed to make the most of two skeins of beautifully dyed yarn, using up every bit possible. The yarn is a beautiful mohair blend of heavy lace weight yarn, dyed with plants from my garden and plant extracts. This lightweight yarn knits up into a fabric that is light as air, soft and delicate. Subtle color shifts make for a subtle beauty that makes it simple enough to wear every day, or lovely enough for special occasions.

This shawl is constructed sideways to create an asymmetrical triangle. The pattern is very flexible should you find yourself having more or less of any one color, or more than two colors. The pattern can also be worked up in any weight, and would be just as lovely in a special DK or worsted weight yarn.
