“This shawl is easy to knit with a simple lace pattern. I called the shawl “Frida”, because the geometrical patterns and the loop fringes give a folk atmosphere, and using the deep red color of Homemade Jam remind me of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo. The shawl – knitted with fingering weight Loft – is very lightweight and compact; you can wear it casually and it is easy to carry around.” − Hiroko Fukatsu
