La Crau - SHAWL - Knitting Pattern

La Crau – A Touch of Tradition and Timelessness

For centuries, shepherds in southern France have roamed the land with their flocks—spending summers on the lush alpine meadows and winters on the sheltered plains of La Crau. Inspired by this seasonal journey, the triangular shawl La Crau captures this contrast perfectly: warm and cool tones blend seamlessly into a harmonious design.

Knit with the wonderfully soft Merino d’Arles from Rosy Green Wool, this shawl not only feels incredible but also tells a story. The mosaic technique, worked with just one color per row, makes it surprisingly easy to knit—while creating a stunning visual effect!

Three beautifully coordinated colors and a generous size make La Crau a versatile companion—the perfect project for anyone who loves relaxing knitting and wants to create a truly special accessory.
