Dopamin Shawl – Hexagon Knitting Pattern with Latvian Braid & Pompoms

Product description

Get inspired by the "happiness hormone" dopamine! This shawl combines science and handcraft in a wonderful way. The hexagon shape is reminiscent of the dopamine molecule and gives the shawl a unique, modern silhouette – not a classic triangular shawl, but an accessory with character.

The highlight is the Latvian braid in contrasting color, which surrounds the shawl like a "hormone frame". There are also playful pompoms at the corners – optionally with I-cord "hormone tails".
