Südameleek – Heartflame: a Red Lace Shawl

If a red flame were looking for a shape, this shawl would be it:Heartflame. A true piece of lace beauty that caresses both shoulders and heart. It is knitted from fine wool yarn, making it delicate as a feather and yet surprisingly warm. Its dimensions make it an easy companion: the top edge is150 cmand the height100 cm. Large enough to wrap around you on a cold evening, yet light enough to take along on a summer walk.

Heartflame was created in the spirit of Haapsalu lace, with fine stitches and an airy rhythm. But it is more than a shawl. It has a story of its own: a colour symbolising love and vitality, carrying a little old-fashioned romance within it too.

Like every proper Haapsalu-style shawl, it had to pass the classic test: will it fit through a ring? Naturally it will!Evidence below. If anyone is still doubtful, Bim will personally check whether the stitches are fine enough and the air between them light enough.

Maimu, our mascot, then proudly decided to demonstrate how proper Haapsalu lace should pass through a ring. Bim stood beside her muttering: “I want to try too!” The result: plenty of laughter, a little furry confusion and finally one warm family memory. The shawl became a family favourite, not only for its beauty but for its story too.

Heartflame is not merely a red shawl. It is a little domestic fairy tale about warmth, humour, a cat and a mascot, and naturally about handicraft that lasts. Something like this can only be made with a patient heart and cheerful spirit. And that is the charm of Tiina Butiik stories: every piece tells its own tale, with a little fire and a great deal of soul.

It has its own place in the shop too.
