About this pattern

Slow and happy, this snail carries a coral spiral shell on its soft yellow back. Navy behind it makes the spiral stand out. Five colors, 91 rows, and a grid of 50 × 42 squares, coming to about 38 × 32 in in worsted yarn. A small, sweet idea for a garden nursery or a gift for someone who needs to slow down a little.
