We’ve teamed up with the lovely Justyna of Letesknits to create an easy and effective shawl. It was in the heart of winter when Justyna chose the warm and earthy combination of shades that became Nappe Shawl, and now the pattern is available on Ravelry and we’ve prepared some vibrant kits with different color options.
We’re knitting ours as fast as we can, because it’s just that perfect dimension to wrap in even in springtime.
*** Please note that kits are sold on our website as a PREORDER that will close on the 12th of April — Kits will be shipped out by the first week of May.***
***Pattern is not included in the yarn kit but can be purchased separately on Ravelry.***
Here are a few details of the possible color options, from the original sample shown to our own favorites, and as we organized the launch of the shawl together with the gorgeous Lisa, owner of This is Knit, a fab LYS in Dublin, Ireland, she added her favorite combo, too!
