Bring a breath of garden color to a shawl or scarf you’ll enjoy making as much as wearing. The Secret Garden mingles pale mint and aqua with deeper teal, soft lavender, and little touches of fresh green. Light and dark passages keep a simple fabric interesting as the colors unfold.
Inspired by Frances Hodgson Burnett’s story of renewal and discovery, this colorway was part of Frabjous Fibers’ 2024–2025 Tour of the Season literary series. The soft superwash merino Mad Hatter base gives your project gentle warmth without the bulk of a heavier yarn.
Try an uncomplicated knitted or crocheted stitch pattern to leave room for the garden-inspired palette.
Great for: Knitted shawls, crocheted wraps, scarves, and light cowls.
