What a fantastic weekend at the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival! A huge thank you to everyone who visited the JUL Designs booth to explore our latest arrivals and experiment with new ways to style your shawls and garments. We find so much inspiration in seeing your incredible handmade pieces, and there is nothing we love more than helping you solve styling challenges so you can wear your work with confidence and pride.

If you couldn’t make it to the festival, you can still get inspired by our top sellers from the show! The Gingko Stud Button Set took the number one spot, with many makers pairing them with our Terraced Hill pattern (hint: you will get the pattern free when you purchase two Gingko sets!). Other fan-favorites included the Ainu Spiral, Modern Ornate, and Magnolia stud buttons.

Finding a shawl that fits perfectly shouldn’t be a guessing game. While most accessories are treated as “one size fits all,” scale is the difference between a wearable staple and a frustrating waste of time. To help you create a piece that truly harmonizes with your body, we’re offering a free PDF of the Terraced Hill Shawl pattern when you purchase two sets of Ginkgo Stud Buttons.

Terraced Hill is a rhythmic garter stitch project designed with genuine size inclusivity in mind. It features two base scales for different shoulder widths and a specialized customization guide to help you take the mystery out of sizing. By using your own measurements to create a template, you can make increases in a personal, improvisational way to achieve the shawl’s signature curving stair-stepped edge.

To claim this offer, simply add two sets of Ginkgo Stud Buttons to your cart and checkout as usual. No coupon code is required; you will receive the pattern download after purchase. Shop now to start building a custom-fit wardrobe that stays put and feels like it was made just for you!
